Tales from the Crypt (1989–1996)
10/10
One of the best.
10 July 2008
I used to sneak downstairs in my parents house when I was little to watch this show, late on Wednesday nights. I recently re-watched all 7 seasons again. Every show deals with the morals human beings go through each day, also every episode ends with a twist only M. Night Shyamalan could only wish to write (and if you thought the Sixth Sense had a great twist, you will love Tales From The Crypt) Maybe not exactly scary, but entertaining nonetheless. Some episodes are downright funny (The Assassin) to creepy (Only Skin Deep) and totally clever (Last Respects). The first few seasons are really worth watching, whereas the last 2 seasons seemed to recycle old story lines... how many times can a dead body get revenge? I only wish this show would return to it's home on HBO. We haven't seen television like this since it was off-air. And I know I'm not alone in wanting to hear "Hello boils and ghouls!" one more time around.
