A provocative, high-concept horror anthology that weaponizes the alphabet as a framework for 26 wildly varied explorations of death, balancing shock value with directorial experimentation.

An ambitious anthology film featuring segments directed by over two dozen of the world's leading talents in contemporary genre film. Inspired by children's educational ABC books, the film comprises 26 individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free reign in choosing a word to create a story involving death.
