Pre-viewed for quality and it had a few 'dirt' snow flashes throughout that should go away upon further viewings. Box looks almost new and so does the cassette with a store branded spine sticker plus a security bar code sticker on the right endcap assuring you of first generation quality. TERROR TRACT jumps back to the hoary days of horror anthologies before 'Tales From the Crypt'. Reminiscent of '80s multi-story horror confections like 'Creepshow' as well as the Amicus movie anthologys. The opening sequence, in which a succsession of animals prey on each other around the neighbourhood, is a fun throwback to the days of 'Cat's Eye'. For once the framing story is a real grabber, with John Ritter starring as Bob Carter, a desperate real estate agent trying to persuade a young couple to buy a house in a seemingly normal neighbourhood apparently rife with violence and supernatural events. In each of the three houses he shows, Carter relates the horrifying story of the past owners: The first concerns a woman, Sarah Freemont, whose husband learns of her adulterous affair with the local stud, Frank. Hubby's gruesome retribution backfires, but Sarah and her lover's attempts to dispose of the body don't quite work as planned. The second yarn features Bryan Cranston (dad from 'Malcolm in the Middle') is a father driven to the brink by his daughter's pet monkey, Bobo, who has developed a nasty habbit of offing anyone who stands in it's way. In the third and most frightening tale, Sean Goodwin has developed the ability to witness terrifying murders before they happen through the eyes of the Granny Killer, who wears a creepy old lady mask. Sean relates his plight to a psychiatrist who begins to believe that Sean may be the killer himself... Better than anyone would ever a right to expect, TERROR TRACT unquestionably delivers the shocks and features some great nods to past horror films ranging from 'Monkey Shines' to 'Dressed to Kill', though the show-stopping final scene is really a delirious feat all its own. It's a reminder that decent horror films have been made; they're just much harder to find.
