Your criticisms of the first ABC's...I hear you. Your criticisms of the first ABC's are totally valid. I guess I tend to gravitate towards cruel, sadistic stuff though so that's probably part of our differing feelings on it.<br /><br />I really don't know what to suggest about ABC's 2 -- some of the segments are just total garbage (lousy story, lousy acting, zero budget), but because they're so short I think they're worth sitting through for the great ones, of which there are quite a few IMO. So considering that, I recommend it.<br /><br />However, based on your criticisms of the first, I think there are at least two segments that you would not enjoy due to sexist/cruel content. So I'm really on the fence about recommending it.<br /><br />But more than anything, I'd just like you to watch it because I want to hear your thoughts on it! Even when I don't agree with you, I just really like reading your takes on flicks. <br /><br />Final answer: I say watch it!n/ahttp://crimsonhighway.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-40803079314691369752020-05-24T11:55:10.640-04:002020-05-24T11:55:10.640-04:00I liked the concept of ABCs, but found I genuinely...I liked the concept of ABCs, but found I genuinely disliked more than I even enjoyed. And that out of 26 segments, 1.5 were made by women didn't help (especially when sooooo many segments were just typical abuse to women and animals). Overall, it just brought out the worst instincts I always see in modern anthologies: this overwhelming need to be as mean as possible. <br /><br />I honestly can't remember if I saw 2! I KNOW I didn't see 2.5, but I could have sworn I watched 2 and looking through the breakdown, nothing is ringing a bell. I either blocked it out or just never actually watched it.

Of course they're all over the map in terms of, well, everything, but I thought the first one was generally consistently pretty decent with a few especially good pieces, and the second one had higher highs and lower lows -- the best stuff was excellent but the lousy stuff was junk -- but I thought the highs outshined the lows. I also like the variety, and the short times of each segment. I thought the frantic pace kept it exciting.<br /><br />Unfortunately, I hated ABC's of Death 2.5. It was pretty much all bad. I can't even remember a single segment I liked from it. But anyway, very interested to hear your take on the franchise.n/ahttp://crimsonhighway.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-91721359567846732922016-10-20T07:22:01.476-04:002016-10-20T07:22:01.476-04:00Well played!Well played!deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-28468938738668265092016-10-17T16:48:39.143-04:002016-10-17T16:48:39.143-04:00This is not the anthology you should be watching o...This is not the anthology you should be watching on Amazon Prime. You should be watching a really, really low budget anthology. I'll give you a hint: http://bit.ly/amazonhorror<br /><br />It has things you enjoy in horror movies and they rhyme with malls. :)Kangashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306092145547452231noreply@blogger.com
