When the segments do gel, they share a wickedly witty and suitably sickly, gory sense of humor that relishes insider horror jokes but never feels cliquey.

This is one for true horror fans. You've got to love: horror anthologies, homages to horror classics, B-movies, horror-comedies, buckets of gore, and for extra credit ... -----MILD SPOILER-------Joe Bob Briggs. If you pass that check-list and are intrigued, you may enjoy "Scare Package." Unfortunately, that formula, even with an iconic horror classic trope/theme to focus on each segment, gets tedious over seven segments. There is a lot to love, and if you've imbibed a bit, then your enjoyment will likely be greater. And that Joe Bob Briggs Cameo! (I was given the original Joe Bob's Drive In book as a gift back in 1985). The guy rocks and was my favorite part of the movie. My quibbles: Having the first short before the wrap-around story intro was innovative but confusing; the over-the-top gore get's repetitive; it's too long. Drive-in Academy Award for the special effects team who must have been very very busy!
