I’ve run across two excellent anthology(ish) horror films recently.
At least, they’re excellent if you stop watching at a particular point.
This is not a joke. This is on par with me telling you "do not Google that."
Ignore me at your own disappointment.
Both Doors and Ghost Stories — their nondescript titles don’t help, right? — have significant reveals during viewing, so I’m somewhat vague on purpose.
Doors (free with Prime) is a series of vignettes after unusual alien "doors" begin appearing. They are all atmospheric, spooky, creepy, and utterly fascinating. And the last one is so inferior and disappointing in every way that it undermines everything that came before. Stop watching at 1 hour, 11 minutes in.
Ghost Stories (rent from Apple or AMC+) follows a professional skeptic as his childhood hero charges him to explain three cases that stumped him. While each case is not anything particularly new, they are all shot so wonderfully, and acted so passionately, that they are practically masterclasses in how to do it right. And after examining the third case the film shifts to explicit moralizing and a cliched "reveal" that is deeply unrewarding. Stop watching at 1 hours, 12 minutes in.
While omitting the endings of both films may leave you with an unsettled sense of things being unexplained, of questions unanswered, I think that actually serves both films better than the endings they actually have.
Again, I highly recommend both films — up until a very specific point.
