    Actually this had some surprising good stories in this mini anthology pieced together from episodes of a short run TV show called 13 Demon Street. Lon Chaney Jr. as the Devil plays sort of as a narrator for the tales by sending Satanya, a young suicide victim, back upstairs to d...( read more)eliver special gifts to humanity so he can catch more souls for hell.

    Again the stories were good and Lon Chaney is great in his narrator type role as the Devil himself but unfortuntly the really small TV budget hurts it for sure. And the editing is the worse I have seen, for example while a guy is raping and killing a woman, it jumps to scenes of a avalanche then a river all the while with a slight swirling to the picture.... yea Im not so sure what thats suppose to represent either. If your a huge Chaney fan like me then its worth a watch just for that and if you can ignore some the bored acting and the really bad editing then you may actually enjoy the non Chaney parts as well.
