Don't bother

Warning: Spoilers
"Supermarket" is a waste of time. I think it's supposed to be a comedy but the hopeful/has-been meeting a real star just falls flat with little else left. The slapstick routine with an incompetent trolley girl would have been better left out altogether. Good editing would have left this at less than two minutes and it still would have been dead. (0 points)

"New years eve" is, I suppose, a good example of a shaggy dog story. Pointless and doesn't go anywhere. (0 points)

"Bangers" works as an illustration of mental illness but is still fairly weak. This is where I started to award points. (5 points)

"A whole new day" falls flat almost from the start as it's based on such a ridiculous premise (she took everything, even the paint off the walls?) Though there is a slight element of entertainment value. (4 points)

"Euston Rd" has some merit. I could almost believe that this was done as a five minute short and the rest was added as padding to attempt to make a feature length. (7 points)

"Standing room only" is just plain silliness at work. Though there are plenty of bits to elicit a chuckle. (5 points)

"The same" is just plain sick. Freaks are only allowed to look at other freaks, what sick mind allowed this in here? I gave a massive point deduction for this one.

"Sniper 470" was not on my disc. I found it by googling and watched it online. Why was it removed as this was definitely the strongest item.

If you are planning to see "Stories of Lost Souls" make sure you get a copy that contains "Sniper 470".
