Synopsis: Welcome to the Hood of Horror, a place where revenge is a dish served cold…in a 40oz. The Hound of Hell (Snoop Dogg) is your guide through three terrifying tales from this nefarious neighborhood... Welcome to the Hood of Horror, a place where revenge is a dish served cold…in a 40oz. The Hound of Hell (Snoop Dogg) is your guide through three terrifying tales from this nefarious neighborhood and its depraved denizens, including a tagger who finds out that not all gangstas die hard; a spoiled heir to a Texan oil dynasty who murders for money but can't pay to stay alive; and a major rap star that discovers he's got a few skeletons in his dressing room…and they're kicking down the door. This bone-chilling, gut-bursting (literally) anthology proves, once and for all: "It AIN'T all good in da Hood!" [More]

There's a certain cartoony fun to these simple morality stories, but mostly they serve as an excuse for laughably lame gore.

Playing the "Crib Keeper" in this urban takeoff on Tales From the Crypt, Snoop Dogg somehow manages to project an aura of detached suavity even under these cheesy circumstances.

Low-budget, tasteless and ridiculous but also fun, in an Old School grindhouse way, as gangsta graffiti artists, not-keeping-it-real rappers and evil rednecks receive their supposedly just desserts (would you believe a 40-ounce through the skull?).

Every story is more trite and less interesting than the one before it, with Snoop taunting the viewer at every turn.

The lessons offered are pretty good -- misuse of power, ego and friendship among them. But the stories are very predictable, and a bit too bloody, and the acting is uneven.

A predictable, cheesy attempt at "splatstick" that doesn't quite work.

Take Hood of Horrors for what it is. Some will enjoy any excuse for gratuitous violence. It certainly doesn't take itself seriously. But most fans can find plenty of better horror movies to satisfy the same need.

Hood of Horror gets dangerously close to minstrel show mentality that Spike Lee has always warned us about.

Sloppily directed, often amateurishly acted and fixated on booty and blood, Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror is nevertheless gleefully disgusting.
