Now withHolidays, a new attempt at themed horror shorts is being released to the public.

It is fairly pointless to run through every one segment of the good and the bad.

They certainly held their own though against the dreadfully uninspired paths of Easter and Mothers Day.

This brings me to just one more low point of the anthology: Kevin Smiths Halloween segment.

Dont run away disappointed yet though, there are some shiny gems to be had acrossHolidaysrunning time.

Its a segment thats a great example of what minimalism in film is capable of.

What is the other one you ask?

What was the one segment that avoided almost all of the traps I said litteredHolidayslike a hoarders bedroom floor?

St. Patricks Day, of course.

The most uninspired sort might expect the St. Paddys Day section ofHolidaysto be about an evil Leprechaun.

But as luck would have it, such cynicism is dead wrong.
