Yeah, so first off, neither the synopsis nor the video trailer said this was an anthology, which might be how they get people to actually watch it since most if not all horror anthologies really aren't done well enough to get someone to watch the whole thing. This one is no different, and I wouldn't have finished it if I wasn't "watching" it while playing mobile games and browsing the internet at the same time.
The stories don't seem to have any common connection beyond how people can be cruel. The only bit that really would fit into a horror movie would be the burnt guy from the trailer, so if you've watched that, then you've seen all the scary bits that the film had. The acting was mediocre, except for the nurse who was horrible. I honestly don't know what this was supposed to be about, if it even had a story behind it.
This isn't horror, I'm not sure what it is, but it isn't that... Maybe some art student can contrive some far fetched idea what the artist wanted it to be like people do with modern art. Time is better spent rewatching Kitchen nightmares as that's scarier than this by far.

Didn't know it was an anthology to start this off
A woke-compliant cast, nothing more.
This is not a horror movie. This is a horror film by and for women, and it's boring as hell.
It's slow, it's disjointed, no beginning and no end. The action is replaced by looks, very very long looks. The nightmarish events consist of betrayals between best friends. The man serves only as furniture on which they sit to think about their inner problems.
I miss the movies, horror or not, made by men who knew their craft, with male, white, patriarchal actors, whose manly presence and cavernous voices made the stories thick as ancient myths.
For two years, since the ideological coups of #metoo and #blm, cinema has been hollow, bland, standardized. Films no longer tell a story, casts and scripts are nothing more than certificates of conformity to the woke dictate.
And these quotas have done what they always do: replace unpredictable genius with imposed mediocrity.
I miss the good old stories.
Nail bitting
Totally enjoyed this movie I think one of the best horror movies this year.
A must see film that will scare the pants off you, edge of your seat movie with frights galore.
