Today I came across the latest anthology-ish film in NITE TALES. First impressions tell me NITE TALES is in the same veign as SNOOP DOGG’S HOOD OF HORROR, except better. TALES comes from writer/director Deon Taylor, who’s also the one bringing us CHAIN LETTER.
After checking out the new trailer for NITE TALES over in our videos section I’m willing to give this one a shot! TALES follows two seperate stories: STORM and KARMA. STORM follows a young group of college students forced to spend a night in their parents’ house as they wait out a vicious storm.. As the rain from the storm falls harder and harder the night gets stranger and stranger. On this night the storm will soon pass, but the killings are just the beginning. Suddenly a knock at the door reveals a strange visitor who is trying to find shelter from the rain. It ends up being a decision that will cost them their lives!
KARMA deals with four bank robbers who all have an extreme appetite for violence. When a simple bank heist soon turns into a struggle for life and thousands of dollars in stolen money it still is not enough to buy their freedom – something more evil than themselves and an even bigger appetite for violence.
So there you have it. After reading up on that I’m sure you’ll want to check out the trailer, so just click through below. To add onto all that, listen to NITE TALES’ stacked cast: Flavor Flav poses as our host while the two stories star Andrea Bogart (below), Gary Busey, Chico Benymon, Greg Cipes, DeRay Davis, Rob Evors, James Ferris, Soraya Kelley, Susane Lee, ‘Tiny’ Lister, Sticky Fingaz, and genre mainstay Tony Todd, who looks to be in an awesome role here.
NITE TALES is hitting DVD shelves in just over a month on February 3rd, though I’ve heard both February 8th and January 20th as release dates as well.
