Welcome to the 'hood of horrors!
It's a place where your worst fears can come to life. A place where it's hard to tell nightmares from reality. A place where you will discover Tales From The Hood.
Stack, Ball and Bulldog arrive at a local funeral parlor to retrieve a lost drug stash held by the mortician Mr. Simms (Clarence Williams III). But Mr. Simms has plans for the boys. He leads them on a tour of his establishment, introducing them to his corpses. Even the dead have tales to tell and Mr. Simms is willing to tell them all. And you better listen – because when you're in the 'hood, even everyday life can lead to extraordinary terror.

As always, Scream Factory is doing the Lord's work with their releases. The blu ray looks great, and the "making of" feature is extensive and entertaining. For whatever reason, I think this film gets overlooked--or at least never revisited since catching it on HBO back in the day. Watch for Clarence Williams III alone!

Whenever someone says something stupid like, "horror movies from there 90s suck." Or something like, "that no one had any idea what they were doing with horror in the 90s." That's when you pop this movie in, to show them that the 90s has plenty of gems! TALES FROM THE HOOD is one of those gems that shines the most. Easily one of the best anthology horror films ever and in some people's opinion, the very best. Clarence Williams III provides one of the best performances in his immaculate career, along with superb performances from so many great actors. The stories are so fun and still hold up to today's standards, if not better. Shout Factory went above and beyond with this release! Packed with so many special features. It was so much fun to learn of the history in making this film. The new transfer is out of this world phenomenal! So get rid of all those old dvd copies and stop searching for those expensive out of print releases. Treat yourself to something nice, something real nice. Get the bluray from Scream Factory / Shout Factory
