A horror anthology film harking back to the mid 70’s and 80’s, inspired by Amicus productions and Creepshow, this Polonia bros. film was shot in 1987 and was never finished, lost for nearly 30 years. Witness three tales, told by a hooded monk on the titular Channel 13. A video game geek returns from some arcade fun to watch movies on TV and can only get reception on Channel 13.
