Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

trashgang There's nothing scary on Sounds Like and that's really the problem with season two. There's only one shot that will be loved by the geeks but overall this is more about situations. But I must say that the performance of Chris Bauer as the office drone with hearing problems was excellent. First he has very sensitive ears and notice every sound that could be noticed very hard and it annoys him. But not only that, his personal life is also one with problems having lost a child and his wife eager to get pregnant again. Slowly his sensitive ears lead him into madness and things go wrong towards the end. It wasn't really my thing, I had no problem with Brad Anderson's , the director, flick The Machinist (2004) a bit in the same way as this story where a man slowly is going berserk but here it took a bit too long for a short before things go awry. Again, it should be okay for a full feature but for Masters Of Horrors it doesn't fit in comparing with season one that set the tone...Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Bjorn (ODDBear) OK. This is very well done. Fantastic sound effects, a somewhat involving story and a very good central performance from Chris Bauer. Still, I didn't really get into "Sounds Like" despite it's many good qualities.In the end this is a very predictable affair. The end conclusion can be spotted miles away and here it's just a question of waiting for something you know is gonna happen. There were no surprises thrown in and for that simple fact the film has to be deemed as long winded. It would probably have fit better in "Tales From The Crypt" than in "Masters of Horror". But I'd never say this is bad, it's just not that good either.

Jonny_Numb Brad Anderson is such an unconventional genre director that the categorization itself feels somewhat off (he started his career writing and directing romantic comedies, after all); that's not to say he hasn't brought a reputable eye to horror, with the mind-twisting "Machinist" and especially "Session 9" (one of the best horror sleepers of the past decade). Refreshingly (and somewhat predictably), Anderson uses the "Masters of Horror" format to tell a tale as intimately character-based as his previous works, while keeping the emphasis on a sense of unease as opposed to excessive gore. 'Sounds Like' is the story of Larry Pearce (Chris Bauer--"8MM"), a call monitor at a software company who develops super-sensitive hearing following the loss of his son; his wallow in grief is punctuated by an escalating madness that culminates in murder and, finally, silence. While the film is technically well done, with superb sound-effects editing (I particularly liked the small-arms fire of a sudden downpour against a windshield), I found myself intrigued yet detached from Larry and his predicament--aside from an early monologue and a few flashbacks, the characters aren't given enough background detail. Despite this, Anderson creates several great setpieces (including an ironic twist to Larry's refuge in a public library, and a scene where he bashes the ticking and buzzing appliances in his home with Nicholsonian grandeur), and certainly shows his knack for telling an offbeat tale. While 'Sounds Like' could have been better, it's still worth a look.

slackwoo-1 This episode was boring and was not even in the realm of horror, so far this season Masters of Horror has produced one really good episode...The Damned Thing...it is still early, I have faith that the episodes will get better. I admit that the vampire episode was okay but lacked a solid storyline. The episode about the couple catching the serial killer started out boring, but the last fifteen minutes was really good. Though, I am just plain out disappointed with the lack of originality and horror that the first season's episodes possessed. Please, save this season John Carpenter! I have faith that Pro-Life will redeem the entire lackluster season so far."You're an angry little elf!"
