Tales From the Crypt

[Oblivious Maximus]

Tales From the Crypt is my favorite TV show. It was and still is awesome. The Cryptkeeper (where I got my username) was one of the coolest TV charecters in history. HBO needs to get off their lazy asses and release this show on DVD. I loved how all the episodes had twist/surprise endings. The 'keepers one liners were very corny, but great. The movies, Demon Knight and Bordello of Blood both kicked major ass. It's very hard for me to pick a favorite episiode, all of them were great. Any other Tales fans here?

I used to like it. I don't know if I still do cause I haven't seen an episode in a long ass time, but my favourite episode was the one where a demented serial killer dressed up as santa claus.

And All Through the House. That is a classic episode.

man i looooove that show. i've seen it on a few times here and there. i remember watching and recording the first ever episode of that, back in 89 or so. the one with the guy in the electric chair, something like that. i believe they showed three that night. that one, the santa one, and the freakshow carnival one. my absolute favorite is the one with morton downey jr. where he's a reporter inside a haunted house and ends up falling out of a window trying to escape a chainsaw-happy ghost. that really brings back memories. staying up late to watch it, i love the opening music too.
i'll have to rent a bunch

 

[FauxPerspicacity]

yeah the opening music was by Danny Elfman

Yes I remember seeing it on TV in the 80's. It was not scary but it was cool.

 

[mousewings]

I always stayed up to watch it when I was little. Memories...

What age are you now? I am now 22 but I remember watching it when I was around 8 or so.

 

[mousewings]

I'm 20. I don't remember when I saw it... about when I was 8 or 10 or so. We didn't get cable tv until later.

The HBO series premired in 1989.

I think the movie was amazing as well, however, the show is far superior.

 

[FauxPerspicacity]

I didn't like the movies too much. The first one was better than the second one though...I think.
