Filming location(s) unknown...Ooh, mysterious...
The story: Matthew Wilson gets home one afternoon. He gets his mail and goes inside.
While going through his mail, he finds he has received a VHS tape of a movie called 'Escapes', starring Vincent Price.
Even though he didn't order the video, he calls up a friend and asks if they wanna come by and watch.
This movie now goes on to consist of 6 short stories...
Story 1, "A Little Fishy": A man is out on a beautiful sunshiny day fishing.
The only bite he gets is from a tiny little fish. Instead of letting the fish go, the man hooks it and throws it back for bait.
Then he finds, hmmm... - ...mmmm a shiny-ripe, red apple!
Story 2, "Coffee Break": A couple traveling the scenic route but seem to be lost decide to stop to ask a local old-timer for directions to Highway 49.
The old-timer, as helpful as can be, tells the couple they have stumbled into the heavenly country and for them to be careful so 'folks like them can come back now, ya hear?' The couple thanks him and away they go. Sometime later, a noisy young'en driving a delivery truck happens upon the old-timer's place, looking for highway 49 as well. A bit startled by the young fellers attitude, he proceeds to set him straight. None the less, the young guy is in a hurry but the old-timer makes him promise he will take his time, drive slow and stop for a cup of coffee. Yeeeup , but he doesn't.
Story 3, " Who's There?" : A Biogenetics scientist gets word that one of the experiments has broken out of the experimental wildlife preserve.
This is a major emergency! The experiment seems to have made its way back to the preserve where children play and people jog.
A man who has jogged far into the preserve to have himself a little snack finds the experiment and begins to run from it. But there are more!
Story 4, "Jonah's Dream": Mary spends a long, hot day out in the mountains mining gold. She doesn't find much, but every little bit counts. She drives off into town bringing along her findings. But she hasn't got much gold to pay up with. The storekeeper advises her to move away from her mining mountain but she insists her past husband would want her to continue living out his dream. Later on that night, something lands on Mary's property bringing lots of change.
Story 5, "Think Twice": A thief has just stolen a purse. While going through the purse, he witnesses a homeless man with a brightly lit crystal recieve much hot food he didn't have before he took out the crystal. The thief decides to beat the crystal out of the homeless man. The homeless man begs for the thief to bring back the crystal, claiming it will do the thief no good. But off he runs with it. The thief is then hit by a drunk driver. The driver gets out to investigate but does not find the thief, only the crystal. But he leaves it there and rushes off. Now the homeless man whom the crystal was taken from in the first place finds his beloved crystal and uses it to get even.
Lastly, story 6, We are back at Matthew Wilson's house and he has been watching the stories along with us. Vincent Price appears at the beginning of the last story, telling Matthew that in this last story, Matthew will participate. Confused and freaked, Matthew shuts the movie off but it comes back on! Do not piss off Vincent, you hear!? So Matthew then takes the video out of the VCR. Next, Matthews's coffee pot begins brewing coffee. There is a knock at the door, but when Matthew answers it there is no one there. Or is there?....
