Tales From the Crypt: season 1 DVD

*DrSpengler* · 07-12-2005, 06:05 PM

One of the better DVDs I've bought in a long time (and just $19.99). All 6 episodes from season 1, completely uncut (none of that hacked up crap they airred on Fox).

The episodes are still great, even one I'd never seen before ("The Man They Called Death" starring the awesome and underrated William Saddler). Even better is the documentary included on the DVD chronicling the history of EC comics. Fascinating. Makes me wish they'd reprint some of those old Haunt of Fear and Vault of Terror comics. I really want to read "Foul Play".

Anyway, just a great set and really cheap.

The horror anthology shows of the 80's are starting to hit DVD recently. First it was the underrated 80's Twilight Zone series, and now Tales from the Crypt. With any luck Tales from the Darkside and Monsters will be out soon.

And I don't think I ever watched the Hitchiker.

i loved hitchiker. it was always very dark. alot of famous actors was in and out of the show.
kristie alley, teri hatcher, dolph lundgren, nancy allen and more.

the theme to the show became a big hit in the 80s.
