A teenage junkie punk spikes his vein after his parents leave for the night and goes to his sister's room to tell her some bedtime stories. The first one is called "Julia's Love" and it's about a chick who goes on a blind date with a freshly escaped mental patient psychopath. She ends up finding out who he is and flees, only to have him track her down and slaughter her entire family. The other segment is called "The Purity". Set in the 50's - it starts off with a guy raping a young woman and blowing her brains out. The guy turns out to be the town priest who moonlights as a satanic serial killer. The locals believe that the one responsible for these random acts of savagery is a local farmer whom they beat up and eventually pay to have killed by a local hitman...
Both of these stories aren't all that clever or anything and the second one goes on a bit too long. It's really the nasty gore that's the stand-out allure of this type of shit, anyway. The effects are very good and are kept adequately consistent. Plus, the ending contains one seriously badass and gruesome depiction of Hell that is the total highlight of the film. Cranial mutilations, shotgun suicides, teeth drilling, intestine devouring. It's a fucking gorehound's paradise. Like-minded splatter fans need to seek this one out.
