In "Penny Farthing," a man is sent back in time, where an ominous portrait controls his unpleasant fate... A husband regrets bringing a mysterious tree named "Mel" home, as the plant destroys his marriage -- and a whole lot more. Lastly, a Polynesian "Luau" is where a literary agent's virgin daughter is to be sacrificed -- however, neither of them knows it

More like 'Tales That Witness Yawning'. Generally uninspired and poor anthology horror has a set-up similiar to the previous years Asylum that has doctor Donald Pleasence telling the four tales within.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
