Most of all, it's the sharp banter between Brown and Custer that keeps it perpetually on the right side of deliciously entertaining, and strikes a very usual balance.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 21, 2021

... these individual spine-tinglers strike the perfect discord between humor and horror, including some rather sophisticated storytelling and a willingness 'to go there.' Happily unrated and gleefully graphic... this isn't for the squeamish.

Clever, inventive and consistently amusing, The Mortuary Collection is one of the best horror anthologies I've ever seen.

The estimable Clancy Brown, gnarly practical effects, and over-cranked gothic art direction aren't enough to smooth out this cheesy, uneven anthology film.

| Original Score: C+ | Nov 3, 2020

Ryan Spindell has lived in the world of horror for years and internalized its lessons. His direction is confident and assured, and along with keeping things moving at a brisk pace, he knows to tweak the tone to fit the story.
