Terrifying Tales is a collection of three UCLA graduate‑student short films, each about 20 minutes long. Paul Bunnell’s 1989 “Final Destination: Unknown” is a genuine horror story, while Armand Garabidian’s 1986 “Ten Seconds to Countdown” is sci‑fi and Ephraim Schwartz’s 1986 “Creatures of Habit” a drama with hints of mystery. The shorts retain their original title cards and credits, though none are particularly strong.
