Asylum: Twisted Horror and Fantasy Tales is a 2020 horror anthology film that takes us through four different stories, each more twisted than the last. The first story, titled "THE CHANGELING," introduces us to a family who moves into an old house, only to discover that their daughter is not what she seems. Soon, they are faced with a terrifying question: who or what is living in their home?

The second story, "METAMORPHOSIS," is about a man who wakes up with no memory of how he got there, only to find himself trapped in a strange facility where he is subjected to gruesome experiments that slowly turn him into a monster.

The third story, "IDIOM," follows a struggling writer who meets a mysterious woman at a coffee shop. She offers him a strange proposition: she will tell him a story, but in exchange, he must give her a story of his own. As the writer becomes more and more immersed in her twisted world, he realizes that the line between reality and fiction is starting to blur.

Finally, in "RADICAL SOLUTIONS," we meet a woman who is desperate for a solution to her chronic insomnia. She receives a brochure in the mail advertising an experimental new treatment that promises to cure her sleeplessness once and for all. But as she soon discovers, the treatment comes with a terrifying side effect.

Each story in Asylum: Twisted Horror and Fantasy Tales is connected by the theme of insanity, whether it is the madness that comes from being trapped in an endless nightmare, the madness that comes from being forced to confront the monsters within oneself, or the madness that comes from trying and failing to find a radical solution to one's problems.

The film is directed by Caye Casas and Alejandro Damiani, who use a combination of practical effects and CGI to create a haunting, surreal atmosphere. The performances from the cast are all solid, particularly Clara Kovacic and Cristian Majolo, who both bring a sense of depth and nuance to their roles.

If you're a fan of horror anthologies like Creepshow or Tales from the Crypt, then Asylum: Twisted Horror and Fantasy Tales is definitely worth checking out. Each story is engaging and chilling in its own way, and the overall tone of the film is perfect for a late-night watch party. So turn off the lights, settle in with some popcorn, and get ready for a journey into the depths of madness.

Asylum: Twisted Horror and Fantasy Tales is a 2020 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 57 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.8.
