MASTERS OF HORROR: CIGARETTE BURNS

Masters of Horror: Cigarette Burns Movie Review

One of my favorite directors, John Carpenter, brings us this episode. A millionaire collector hires a movie theatre owner (Norman Reedus of Boondock Saints and The Messengers 2) to track down and purchase for him a copy of the film titled Le Fun du Monde, a movie shown publicly just once, and known for turning it's viewers in homicidal maniacs (think The Ring, except instead of dying you kill others-- or yourself).

Something is happening here

A very interesting plot evolves as the film moves. I liked this one a lot. Carpenter's directing is obvious here; there are tons of gruesome scenes, and a very strong performance by Reedus carry this one. Recommended to any horror fan.
