This 1995 horror anthology film stars Clarence Williams III, Corbin Bernsen, Tom Wright, Lamont Bentley and Rusty Cundieff. This begins with 3 African-American thugs who arrive at a funeral home to make a deal with mortician, Simms (Williams) who reveals 4 true tales to them. The 1st features an ex-cop helping a murdered activist (Wright) exacting revenge on 3 crooked cops who killed him. The 2nd features a teacher (Cundieff) trying to help a young boy who is scared of an abusive monster. The 3rd features a racist senator (Bernsen) who buys a southern plantation and becomes haunted by a possessed doll seeking revenge for his tortured ancestors. The 4th & final tale ties the film with a violent gang member (Bentley) who gets shot and is experimented on for a chance of redemption. Soon, the thugs get more than they bargained for when they learn who Simms really is. This follows in the footsteps of "Tales from the Crypt," Williams is menacing in it and Cundieff also directed it. It's not bad and I recommend it to horror fans.
