Not quite as good as the original, but there is still enough here to make it very watchable. This time we have three shorts, each from the mind of Stephen King.
The first is the worst of the three:
Chief Wooden Head, about a wooden Red Indian taking revenge when an ancient artifact is stolen.
Next up is The Raft, a highly entertaining tale of a group of teenagers going swimming in a prohibited area, only to discover that the lakes' waters contain more than they bargained for.
Last up is The Hitchhiker, a disturbing tale of a middle class woman committing an act of hit 'n' run, only for the victim to keep pursuing her relentlessly, even after she has killed him again, and again, and again. It's quite graphic, and sinister sums it up.
All round, an entertaining anthology series that horror fans should enjoy.
