As I sat down to watch the 2020 movie "Books of Blood" I wasn't aware that it was a horror anthology. And as much as I love horror, there is a tendency of anthologies set within the horror genre of being somewhat less than mediocre.
However, I must admit that "Books of Blood" was a much welcomed addition to the horror anthologies, because this was actually a rather enjoyable collection of stories that proved to be nicely interwoven with one another in a satisfactory manner.
And I am astounded to find out that the stories told in "Books of Blood" apparently are based on Clive Barker writings. That is just very interesting and cool actually.
The stories were quite different in their contents, so chances are high that you will find something suitable for your particular tastes and preferences. I enjoyed all three tales, however, I found the one with the bed & breakfast to be the most enjoyable and interesting.
The acting in the three stories was good, generally speaking for everyone involved. I was definitely content with the performances that were put on, and they had a good ensemble of casted actors and actresses to bring the various characters to life on the screen.
I will say that "Books of Blood" is definitely a horror anthology that is well-worth taking the time to sit down and watch if you get the chance to do so. I was more than genuinely entertained by what writers Adam Simon and Brannon Braga managed to present with this anthology.
My rating of "Books of Blood" is a six out of ten stars.
