Tales from the Quadead Zone (1987)

How bad is it? It is among the worst home movies ever released on video.
Should you see it? If you really love bad films, you have to.

This is the better of Chester Turner's two films, the other being "Black Devil Doll from Hell" [how have I not reviewed that?! I assumed I had]. An actress reads two stories from a horror anthology to the ghost of her son, who's never seen, apparently just off-screen and occasionally whispers. You expect four stories from the title, but it's 'qua - dead' as in "quasi," not "quad." The first story is about a redneck family that murders each other over sandwiches and the second about a zombie clown. At the end, the actress kills her boyfriend and the cops arrive. This has a little gore and a theme song, but is still inconceivably cheap and shoddy, even by shot-on-camcorder standards.
