BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

GL84 Crossed over into the other side, a man is told to warn others like him to see the error of their past, and recounts three stories which showcase their chance at redemption or end up in the Hood of Horror.The Good Stor(ies): Crossed Over-Living in the hood, an aspiring artist tackles with a group of local thugs over her uplifting graffiti in their neighborhood. Taken in by a homeless derelict after a conflict, she finds herself able to extract supernatural vengeance on those when she crosses out their names. The more she resorts to physical acts of violence, the more she gets corrupted by what she's doing, and soon becomes a target for those who she targeted. Overall, this was an entertaining and really enjoyable segment. The gore in this one is one of the best features, as the kills are plain messy. There's a beer bottle breaking open the back of the head and splattering the wall behind them, a phone cord wrapped around the neck and ripping the throat out, a messy gunshot wound and a fantastic kill with a soda bottle, and all have a ton of bloodshed. Along with the great demon make-up, this is a great area. The plot isn't bad, being a great range of redemption and corruption handled nicely, and along with a good pace, makes this one a great opener.The Scumlord-Arriving at an apartment building, a man and his wife find that his deceased father left it to them if they lived in it for a year. After meeting the tenets, they decide to upswing the low-rent district to their freewheeling lifestyle, which doesn't sit well with them. After one demand too many leads to a wrongful death, they rise up against the couple for their disrespectful ways. This one wasn't that bad and had some good parts to it. This one does have a great way of settling the revenge here as necessary, doing everything that's required to make it something that is looked forward to. The actions here set-up the revenge taken out later and is done just well, making the revenge as well as the execution of the actions altogether. That, though, points out the segment's lone flaw, in that it's entirely too predictable. Nearly everyone will have seen this one's resolution coming a mile away since this one's a really clichéd set-up. It's still highly watchable, though.Rapsody Askew-Getting a record contract, a wannabe rapper uses it to escape the streets and ends up taking the world by storm with his music. Preparing for a concert, he parties with his posse backstage before getting a warning from the building's supervisor about the party and find himself all alone. Suddenly forced to own up to his past with his partner who he set-up in order to capitalize on his death to get famous, and must soon live up to the wronged deeds of his past. This was a really good and enjoyable segment. That it takes a great spin on the redemption revenge angle is fantastic, as the build-up to it throw the use of videos is pretty novel, and for it to be done in a dressing room allows for some really nice scenes. What's also great is the macabre twist it pulls out with the double turn at the end and using it to make the final segment great. The impressive camera-work during the sequence to highlight the trippy visuals going on is another big plus, as is the few gore effects on display. In short, this was a good segment.The Bad Stor(ies): While not entirely bad, the wraparound sketches are hit-or-miss. The prologue is fine is a little nonsensical, but it at least gives a decent back-story to the protagonist. The in-films ones are better, with the animation allowing for some more graphic images than conventions would allow and overall making them quite entertaining. It's simply the fact that they carry on the story's ending in animation rather than the other way around, and this somewhat knocks it down, along with the minor flaws within the individual stories.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, drug use, Brief Nudity and a mild sex scene.

callanvass Hood Of Horror is a Horror anthology I saw a while back, but never got around to reviewing, and as a result it's erased from my memory, but i'll do my best. Basically Snoop Dog decides to imitate Creepshow, only with B grade actors, and replacing it with tons of gracious gore. There's no thrills here, the dialog is incredibly silly, along with Snoop Dog showing up here and there. I am very non picky with Horror Antholigies, I enjoy most of them, but here there is honestly not much to enjoy, and the stories are pretty mediocre.Bottom line. Hood of Horror isn't as bad as I thought, but not anything noteworthy either. It's well below average, and isn't something I'm gonna see again any time soon. You could do worse then this I suppose, but wait for telly, and if nothing else is on.4/10

Roland E. Zwick The "trilogy of terror" has been a horror movie staple ever since Vincent Price made a name for himself in the 1960's starring in all those Roger Corman adaptations of Edgar Allen Poe short stories. Now, 40 years later, director Stacy Title is attempting to carry on that tradition with "Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror," as dimwitted and cheapjack a B-movie travesty as we've come across in quite some time.Acting as a sort of gangsta' rap version of Elvira, Snoop Dogg serves as the host of the show, introducing us to the three stories, then providing a sermonizing moral as wrap-up when each of them is finished. The first episode, entitled "Crossed Out," tells of a young woman given the power to supernaturally exterminate all the graffiti artists in her neighborhood simply by spray-painting a giant red x through their work. The second entry, "The Scumlord," is a parodic tale of a group of grizzled Vietnam vets who turn the tables on their racist landlord. The third, "Rapsody Askew," is a confused account of a rap star forced to face divine judgment for the error-filled life he's led.Despite the movie's title, there isn't a single suspenseful moment in any of the segments, which, when taken together, feel like a trio of under-conceived and under-nourished rejects from the old "Twilight Zone" series. As the two "name" players in the cast, Billy Dee Williams and Jason Alexander are literally the only things separating "Hood of Horror" from your average amateur movie shot in someone's backyard on 8-millimeter. Even the gore is remarkably over-the-top and cartoon-like in nature, the kind of thing one would expect from a group of precocious high school students in their first experience with a camera.As uninteresting as it is uninspired, "Hood of Horror" gives anthology films a bad name.

r34per I just recently seen a screener of Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror. I must say, I was very pleased. Even though the film didn't have very good production values, it used the budget well. It made you laugh, had gross-out gore, and did things a lot of movies have never attempted.The movie is focused around three people, and it shows their stories with introductions form Snoop Dogg. The movie has some really impressive anime/cartoon style gunfights and introductions, that really make this film unique from "Tales from the Hood". Snoop Dogg Plays HOH/Devon the Cryptkeeper, and does a really good job being funny and gross at the same time. We all know that Snoop Dogg disgraced himself in "Bones", but in my eyes, he redeemed himself.The main part of the film I disliked is the character of "Posie", who is played by Daniella Alonso. Her acting makes you wonder if she's being funny, or just sucks. Other than that, I really enjoyed the film.Hilarious Gore Scenes, Funny Lines, and Unique Animation really made this film what it is. Too me, you cant compare it much with "Tales from the Hood", because they are too different type of films. I think if "Tales From the Hood" was made during this time, it might have this amount of gore, but who knows.Good flick, cant wait till it comes out on DVD!
