Plots(1)
This film features five stories of supernatural terror from four directors. A group of strangers are inexplicably gathered in an isolated country estate. Dreams and nightmares dominate the conversation, and each guest shares a frightening event from his or her past. Two of the stories stand out: a mirror with a horrifying story that shows you a different room when you look into it and a ventriloquist who goes mad when his dummy appears to come to life.

I was mostly struck by the story with the ventriloquist puppet, which, although a bit overused these days, could have had the right effect in its time. I think the creators knew very well why they put it at the end. That's where it truly excels. It's like a cherry on top of an otherwise not-very-tasty cake - nothing offensive, but also not much to get excited about. Dead of Night remains just one of many for me.
