Video Shop Tales of Terror (2023) is a horror anthology in the classic style of horror studios from the past but with a twist. In it, a sinister video rental store is the portal to a series of tales of terror.

It consists of the segments “Mary Whitehouse, you’re a…“, “Video Dungeon“, “Egghead“, “Fleurs du Mal“, “Vergessen“, “Witchfinder Actual 3D Trailer“, “Don’t sit on his face Trailer“, “The Red Lipped Moon“, and “These Burnt Children“. Alexander Churchyard, Max Davenport, Mj Dixon, Andrew Elias, Michael Fausti, Geoff Harmer, Tony Mardon, Sam Mason-Bell, and Thomas Lee Rutter are directing.

Perhaps the biggest attraction in the cast is the appearance of Laurence R. Harvey, who played the infamous Martin in The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence) (2011), and the B-movie scream queen Dani Thompson. Ayvianna Snow, Charlie Bond, Annabella Rich, Georgina Dugdale, Peter Tilley, and Faith Elizabeth also star

The movie is having its world premiere this weekend at the Horror-on-Sea Film Festival. Check the festival website for tickets and schedule.
