Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities: Season 1

"(This) eight part anthology is full of delectably nasty tales brimming with some of the most exciting voices in horror."

"Every short here has a piece to recommend it, even if some burns can be too slow, or moral lessons a little too pat."

"Eight distinct and beautifully crafted hour-long horror stories that will fright and delight in equal measure."

"Some episodes are more effective than others... (but) this is a suitably grisly and nightmarish feast for fans of the sinister and the supernatural."

"Too often there’s gore without scares, punishments that aren’t particularly ironic and stories struggling to justify their run time."

"A series that lands somewhere between deflating and infuriating."

"A mostly chilling, thrilling selection of scary tales."

"A technically impressive and cohesive anthology. The roster of talent on display is incredible, and that reflects in the series’ quality."

"Uneven, but with two or three gross, spooky standouts."

"While some (episodes) utilise their concepts to sheer perfection, others stumble a bit in the execution, though none are boring."
