"Horror anthologies can often be a tough nut to crack: do you trace them round a wrap around story, do you have a central theme? 'Holidays' is short films 'inspired' by a different holiday, however the results are sadly underwhelming. Often the stories feel shoehorned round a festivity rather than organic and inspired to the source holiday, perhaps only one or two (the first in particular - valentines day) really feeling up to scratch. The others are, for the most part, a rather vapid affair; tame slices of simmering horror which burnout before they even begin"
