Pandemonium superficially offers a rather classical Christian view of hell and damnation but fails to cash in, on the core premise. I guess for atheists like myself, it reaffirms why religion offers little appeal. That said, I don't mind a hellish horror tale yet this is really more sad and depressing, than anything else. In essence what you get is a "sort of anthology' that offers up essentially three tales, all of which are rather tragic but ultimately fail to deliver anything of real meaning or interest to the viewer. Aside from re-affirming how awful, life can be. In summary, well acted but feels a little pointless and ugly. I'm not sure on what basis I could recommend this.
