Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Jim Wollf This simply works. Lovecraft's original adaptation may have been abused here, (and if you expect a short horror film to match your expectations from a book you read 25 years ago that's your problem) but I'm guessing most have never read it anyway. Surely not 5 star for effects or cast but nonetheless the story itself and main character's acting are fantastic. What I loved most about this show is that unlike most 'horror movies' these days, the final moments left me hanging, left me in suspense, criticizing the TV, and then they fixed it. Most shows are too lazy to clean up after themselves but this one, it takes care of that. Certainly not anticlimactic. My review in summation is sit back for a 2 bit thrill ride and you will get your money's worth.

BA_Harrison Reanimator, From Beyond, Castle Freak, Dagon: if there's any director who genuinely strives to do justice to the twisted supernatural work of H.P.Lovecraft, it's Stuart Gordon, whose film adaptations of the great writer's work have displayed considerable skill, visual flair and imagination (if you haven't seen Castle Freak or Dagon yet, you're missing out!). Dreams in The Witch House, Gordon's first Master of Horrors episode, is further proof (as if any was needed) that the man sure knows his stuff when it comes strange alternate dimensions, ancient evil creatures, and general Gothic creepiness.Lovecraft's short story, about an ancient evil witch who crosses space and time to possess grad student Walter Gilman, offers plenty of opportunity for freakiness including an evil rat familiar with a human face, strange dream sequences, gratuitous hot witch sex, a central character descending slowly into madness and even ritualistic infanticide—just the kind of material that Gordon does best. All of this is realised with lashings of atmosphere, a touch of gruesome gore, some unapologetic nastiness, plus a spot of welcome nudity from curvaceous hottie Chelah Horsdal as Gilman's MILF of a neighbour, making Dreams in the Witch House a fabulously frightful way to spend an hour of your time.

kosmasp You (might) have seen this story before. It has been told quite a few times. Still the acting is good enough and the story(-telling) is good enough to keep your attention for the whole time. Story twists and weird images included.Masters of Horrors might have brought up better episodes, but this still shows you, that the guys at work here (mostly veteran directors), know their stuff. He gets the most out of the location/story combination here, which isn't really an easy task. Weird characters might mean, that you won't feel completely compassionate about them, but with a horror story like that, I think it's not completely necessary.

Clayton07 With all of the Lovecraftian horror films out there, Gordon does an excellent job staying close to the actual story. He strays from time to time and adds a few things, such as a few nude scenes, but that is to be expected with Gordon. Ezra Godden's acting is very believable, you can actually believe that he is descending into madness throughout the film. The special effects on Brown Jenkin are good yet provide some humor to the film, as is Gordon's style.If you are a fan of Lovecraft and a fan of Stuart Gordon's work, this film is a must. And if not a fan of Lovecraft, it is a great little horror film with plenty of gore. One of my favorites.
