The fourteenth instalment of the SHAKE, RATTLE & ROLL franchise is a step up from those which came previously. It's still not great, but it does rise to the level of being merely average, thanks to plenty of incident and the like. The three stories play out in order and for once were all directed by the same guy, so they have more consistency in terms of quality. First up is the usual reading of the will scenario, with the twist that the deceased was a comic book writer whose supernatural creations now come to life to plague his relatives; expect Dracula rising from his coffin and the like. Next we have a squad of forested soldiers coming across a zombie outbreak and being forced to fight for survival in an action-packed story. The final story is the most imaginative and sees a couple exploring the ruins of a collapsed shopping mall before encountering something extraterrestrial in origin. Lots of cheap CGI in this one.
