Description: Britain wasn’t exactly known for its slasher movies in the early 80s. Screamtime readdresses the balance somewhat (and ressurects that grand tradition of Brit horror anthologies). Linked by a wrap-around story where two hoodlums steal some horror flicks from a Times Square video store (great nostalgia for fans of big box videos and 42nd Street!). The stories themselves are great fun: a psychotic Punch and Judy man shows them “That’s the way to do it!”; a young couple are haunted by slasher killings in their new home; and demented garden gnomes attack big haired thieves! Pretty good rip.
Review: Three purloined movie tapes generate all kinds of issues for the two teenagers just who stole them in this horror trilogy.The tapes they swiped, so they could have film evening along with their girl buddies, are “Killer Punch,” featuring a harsh puppeteer utilizing his craft to torment his household; “Scream House,” about a younger few living in a residence haunted by the specter of a deranged killer; and “Garden of Blood,” a chronicle of two hapless gardeners assigned to have a tendency a haunted lawn.

Good movie…I’m a sucker for those anthologies with a wraparound story. The ending of the wraparound could have been better, though. But I liked it.
