Spiders' legs brushing against naked skin?Unexplainable noises heard at night in a dark bedroom?A big empty house where you feel a presence?A hypodermic needle getting closer and closer?A dead thing trapped in a bottle of formaldehyde?A huge growling dog, baring its teeth and staring?So many scary moments we have experienced at some point in our lives - like the craftsmen of this journey straight to the land of fear. Six of the world's hottest graphic artists and cartoonists have breathed life into their nightmares, bleeding away color only to retain the starkness of light and the pitch black of shadows. Their intertwined stories make up an unprecedented epic where phobias, disgust and nightmares come to life and reveal Fear at its most naked and intense?

    If i had to pick an overall weakness in particular, it would be Pierre Di Scullo's freestyle monologue linking the segments. Occasionally amusing as it was, its accompanying abstract visuals were disappointingly uninspired. Not only was it thematically somewhat incongruent with the rest of the film, the absence of this light-hearted intermission would have made the film more powerful in its entirety (no doubt the intention of the film-makers WAS to afford audiences a brief respite every few minutes from the terror , i felt this decision unnecessary)
