(Wetfloor Productions, 2001) Mike Hoffman's feature debut is an above-average anthology about an unemployed man named Dennis Frye seeking work at an off-kilter job placement office run by Joel D. Wynkoop. But instead of telling him what the job entails Wynkoop goes on about what will happen to him once he takes the job. In one case he's working at a catering company--and on the way home he hit-and-runs a young girl and her doll. And then the doll starts to show up wherever he is until he finally gets its revenge. His next job scenario is at a bookstore where he falls in love with one of the customers. By reading a book on how to have an 'out-of-body' experience he visits her at night and subliminally tells her that she's in love with him. But he ends up returning to his body too late--and his body is dead. The woman wakes up and realizes she's in love with him--but it's too late. You get the idea. This strong wraparound hook works really well for the three stories and Bill Cassinelli as Dennis Frye is perfect in the role of the 'average joe' character. SCARY TALES is an entertaining movie.
