Nice! A giallo-heavy trio of stories turns this into possibly my favorite issue of the series so far. It was nice to step away from the supernatural for a full issue. All three tales are worthy of a screenplay adaptation with some psychedelic Italian music and heavily colored and shadowed lighting. CUT was my favorite with the subtextual commentary landing a blow heavily across my jaw, COMPOSITE was close behind and FILMMAKER brought up the rear by going on just a tad too long.

Read as a single issue with the evocative Fornes cover.

I have to say the composite man was a satisfying story… see what can be accomplished if you let a story be just a bit longer? Anyhow I enjoyed Making the Cut for the always important “just desserts” element of an EC story. Sadly while I liked the color palette of filmmakers dilemma it just didn’t hit.

Not the best I've read from this run but hey its an anthology you win some, you lose some.
