Summary
Inspired by children's educational ABC books, this motion picture comprises 26 individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were given free reign in choosing a word to create a story involving death. Provocative, shocking, funny, and ultimately confrontational, the movie is the definitive vision of modern horror diversity
