I miss late 80s/90s shows like "Monsters", "Tales from the Darkside", "The Outer Limits" and, of course, "Tales from the Crypt". There's something about the practical effects and the cheesy video effects that just pushes all the right nostalgia buttons for me. Thanks for sharing, James! :)
I just stating watching some of them on youtube after watching Twilight Zone and 90's Outer Limits. My 2 fav so far are Yellow ( a masterpiece ) and Aba Cadavear
Unless I'm having a brain fart, there was also a small show called Monsters I think in the 80s that I loved. Unless I'm confusing titles I'm pretty sure it was called that. Some real Twilight Zone-eque stuff there.
Tales from the dark side is awesome! My college art professor did the monster special effects and set design for the show. Good stuff! The movie is cool too.
My family and I would watch this show all the time back in the 90's when it was on tv still. It always tripped me out as a kid but I still loved it. That part when the keeper pops up in the coffin always had me on edge, I always had to brace myself for it and knew it was gonna happen every time.
One of my favorite episodes is the one about the a guy who dies but it turns out he's still alive but can't move or speak and he has to sit through his own autopsy, feeling everything that's being done to him. That is such a terrifying concept and it gave me the chills!
@@timexi5704 You have a good point. However, in Abra Cadaver, the man THINKS he's dead, due to the effect of the drug that his drink was laced with. With You, Murderer, the man's brain is indeed working, although, to the outside world, and by all appearances, he definitely SEEMS to be dead. Both You, Murderer and Abra Cadaver are very well put-together stories...at least, in my opinion. Would you agree, or disagree?
Great list. Did you know there was a Tales from the Crypt anthology movie from 1972? It had the original version of All Through the Night starring Joan Collins. Also, had a tale starring Peter Cushing in it. Got it in a 2 DVD set with the Vault of Horror from 1973. Sadly, that film was only available as a tv edited version, so they used stills in a couple spots to remove gore. Still an excellent watch with an impressive cast of actors who played in lots of other Amicus productions.
I saw that movie several months ago. Very horrific, and each of those people sitting there were eventually cast into Hell for their wickedness. A totally morbid movie, indeed!
The great thing about this show is how everyone has a favorite episode, and they’re all so enjoyable in their own way. This show deserves a release on streaming so it can get love from old and new generations.
One of my friends as a kid used to have some episodes on VHS ^^ Scared the shit out of me.. didn't help that he lived in a house surrounded by woods, making it a creepy location too. Had to go rewatch the 'cutting cards' one on UA-cam - hahaha can't belive I was scare of this! It's soo cheesy! :D
my fav ep is the college ep were the pledges have to go inside this haunted house and impress the girls and turns out that the girls are dead and chop them up with chainsaw and eat them
I love that yellow was featured in hear, it may not have been a typical tale from the crypt, but the execution and ruthlessness of it was perfect. Definitely one of my favorites
I really liked "Death of Some Salesmen" and "Loved to Death" too, though the latter one is a bit too cliche, but the they were really funny =) "The sales men sold me a color TV that didn't work. Till I fixed it! Now it's a color TV (shows salesman body parts inside a TV)!"
It is very difficult finding a legitimate NOSTALGIA BOX, but this was a bullseye for me! Viewed every episode from pilot on HBO as a kid. Thanx SOOO much for the memories._. 😏
Good list! A couple episodes that I think should crack the Top 10 are Three's a Crowd, Television Terror, Mournin' Mess, Two for the Show, and The Trap. Three's a Crowd's ending is so twisted. Television Terror is super creepy. Mournin' Mess has the classic funny Tales twist. Two for the Show is one of those awesome Crime/Shock Suspense Story episodes. And lastly, the Trap, Lou Paloma is one of the best characters in the show - #2 behind Joe Pesci's of course :)
I always loved this show as a kid. It was actually on national TV in Mexico for a long time, uncensored but relegated to only night time showing, at around 11 pm. It was the coolest thing to watch alongside Are you Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps.
Just watched this hoping you had "Cutting Cards" or what I call Chop Poker on your list. Glad to see it at the top. What a classic, crazy and funny episode!
I wish you would do more reviews on these shows, I grew up watching them and it brings back memories of a lost time. I don't have time to watch these episodes again so I love watching reviews on classic stuff!
GODDAMN! I watched The Third Pig when I was really young and I could never remember the name of it or how to find it! I caught the episode after the intro so I had no idea it was even a Tales From the Crypt. Thank you James! That's been driving me crazy for over twenty years.
I actually really enjoyed the cartoon series. While it wasn't as violent, it was intense and rather dark at times. Also, it had some petty insightful messages.
Fucking loving the scary movie reviews and Halloween themed shows. Super awesome content new it takes a lot of work to keep these coming so fast but it's awesome
I LOVE THE SHOWS 2 BUT SOME SOME IDOT TOOK OFF THE CHILLER CHANEL SO STUPID 257 HAD THE BEST HORROR MOVIES & SHOES EVER!!!! HATE THEY TOOK OFF!!!! I LOVE HORROR MOVIES STHEPEN KING MY FAV!!!
Forgive me if this has been said already but the Santa one was actually a remake from the original Tales From the Crypt movie that I think came out in 1972. Definitely worth watching!
Liberals: 'Sexism is bad and should be disavowed under any circumstance.' Liberals: 'Sexism can be acceptable if it is against a woman who doesn't share our political views.'
E.C used to do three or four stories an issue. Insane, right? So they ended up copying some of the stories they read. They did sign a deal with Ray Bradbury after he caught them using one of his stories, but I imagine a lot of other authors got screwed. E.C didn't have the money behind them to higher a huge staff like D.C, but I think they had the best talent pool in the industry and that showed in their work. The comic came out a few years before the Kubrick film, but one of them might have read the original novel by Cobb.
Hey James, what about a top ten for the 80's revival of Twilight Zone? Always thought it was underestimated and there are some great episodes like the one with the woman stopping the time right before a nuclear attack. And it's even directed by Wes Craven!
mathmss, the 80's Twilight Zone was amazing! I was going to suggest James to do a top ten as well. I just watched the entire series on DVD and I loved a majority of the episodes, I will never understand the hate this series gets.
Sinjin Smyth, have you watched both the 80's and the orginal Twilight Zone recently? I found that orginal had a lot more stinkers than I remembered and the 80's has their fair share of bad episodes too. I enjoy watching both of them.
I never got a chance to watch the show when it came out. My family didn't have HBO and even when I was able to watch HBO at my Grandma's house, I was too spooked. Unfortunately, by the time I was old enough to watch it, I only managed to watch Bordello of Blood, which was constantly repeated on HBO, Spike, and a few other channels.
Hey James have you ever heard of the show Amazing Stories? I believe it was also it's era and was basically the same concept of this show- an anthology inspired by horror dime-comics, but thete were also many non horror episodes. It was produced by Universal I think so it wasnt as violent or vulgar as this. One episode even had Mark Hamil in it. (Edit): I found that this show was just picked up for a reboot earlier this month. It was originally a Stephen Spielberg original show and he is back for the reboot.
I think what it is... it takes a while to upload long videos. He probably starts uploading around 11pm or something and then it finalizes around 3 or 4 in the morning.
You can publish a video whenever you want without doing anything, just set the date and time and it does its thing on its own. A lot of UA-camres upload super late. John Oliver, A Dose Of Buckley, GameSack. Probably has to do with their audience, maybe we're just up at the weirdest times.
I've always loved anthology shows like Tales from the crypt. Obviously the most well known is Twilight Zone, but there's also Outer limits, Monsters, Ray Bradbury theater, Tales from the dark side, perversions of science, just to name the ones off the top of my head.
Hold up this was on HBO??? I remember as a kid watching tales from the crypt on Fox. Did something happen that I don't know about did the series get shitty and then move to fox?
frank joeson I remember Fright night but I do remember tales from the crypt coming on at around 11 PM or 12 AM on Fox at some point. I know this because at that age my family did not have cable and I remember the crypt keeper being the host of the show.
JoE KeRr There would've been no way of me knowing this when I was a kid I had no cable what so ever I honestly thought this was a original Fox show up until today. Damn Tales from the crypt was incredible I even enjoyed the cartoon I could imagine how much better it would've been on HBO
Great list. It has all my favorites. They were the ones that stand out the most to me as i havent seen the show in about 20 years. Most of the other lists ive seen are more concerned with the quality of the episodes rather than the the ones that are just plain fun and memorable. The only one i would add is the one where christopher reeves owns a restaraunt and changes his menu from squid based dishes to a certain secret ingredient that ends up being a huge hit.
I grew up watching 80's TZ. It was great! Sure, there was quite a few stinkers, but the good ones made up for it. You really think episodes like "To See The Invisible Man", "Profile In Silver", and "Dead Run" sucked?
That one episode Loved To Death had a similar storyline with The Twilight Zone episode The Chaser. The difference is the endings. In The Chaser Roger attempts to poison his wife Leila but changes his mind when she tells him she's pregnant! In Loved To Death Edward ended up poisoning himself instead of Miranda. He ends up in the afterlife shortly being joined by Miranda who killed herself by jumping out the window! He screams in torment at the thought of them being together for eternity!
Remember watching this as a kid but still cared but still would watch..my step dad scared the life out of me younger..ran into the table..what memories ha
THe scarriest episodes were the ones that were rehashed and shown years later with no indication from the thumbnail that it was from years ago. Wait what
I miss late 80s/90s shows like "Monsters", "Tales from the Darkside", "The Outer Limits" and, of course, "Tales from the Crypt". There's something about the practical effects and the cheesy video effects that just pushes all the right nostalgia buttons for me. Thanks for sharing, James! :)
Don't forget *Freddy's Nightmares* and *Friday The 13th: The Series*
I finally went through the top 40 Outerlimits and now I am going through some of the Tales of Crypt and they are good stuff. I cannot get Darkside
What is monsters ??? Any good
Pretty much the same as Tales from the Darkside except it was called Monsters. So yeah it was good.
Very glad my father showed me this realm of cheese so that way I can keep the tradition alive until my children can carry on glorious B culture
I loved "Death of Some Salesmen" with Tim Curry on season 5 . He played all of the creepy family's members.
Schade88 I was waiting for that episode to be mentioned.
Easily the best episode
@Hammerin' Hank "Cutting Cards" is a GREAT episode. I also love "Carrion Death", just two people and one dead and one talking to himself...
I expected that to be #1 but I have no beef with this aside from that episode's absence
I remember as a kid the episode that scared me the most was Abra Cadaver. I remember having nightmares of being alive during an autopsy
One of the best shows of all time
PJ thats awesome. Wish we did that in school.
I just stating watching some of them on youtube after watching Twilight Zone and 90's Outer Limits. My 2 fav so far are Yellow ( a masterpiece ) and Aba Cadavear
My personal favorite was the lumberjack that is messing around with the bosses wife
Not Quite Ripe “split second”
Thats one of my favorites...great episode
Love me some Michelle Johnson.
I liked the episode with the Funeral Parlor. Fitting Punishment. That was scary.
Didn't that one have Ted Danson?
This show was the fucking greatest
was... still is
Your right the show just had a certain style about itself
Agreed, this is still to date my fave show... Also, the twilight zone, love them!
I liked the movie a lot too
No, MONSTERS was the greatest; Tales from the Crypt just had a lot of stars, nothing more.
Much appreciation for not spoiling the endings
Tales from the crypt, Creepshow movies, Tales From the Dark Side, and Werewolf scared the shit out of me as a kid. Classic 80's all the way!!
tales from the crypt came out in 89 so i would barley call it a 80 shows
Unless I'm having a brain fart, there was also a small show called Monsters I think in the 80s that I loved. Unless I'm confusing titles I'm pretty sure it was called that. Some real Twilight Zone-eque stuff there.
Tales from the dark side is awesome! My college art professor did the monster special effects and set design for the show. Good stuff! The movie is cool too.
Hell yeah I miss Werewolf which aired on Fox. That was my shit.
Werewolf?
There was one episode called "Three's A Crowd" and boy, the twist on that one is as evil and depressing as can be.
Frightening, too, especially there at the very last!
schlumbl84 Was that the one about the man being jealous of his wife’s friend?
@@justsomeokami8867 Yep; they stay at his cabin & starts to believe that they are having an affair. He's right, it's just not that type of affair.
@@ralph8677 I thought that was the one 👍🏾
One My favorites,and the music is awesome
My family and I would watch this show all the time back in the 90's when it was on tv still. It always tripped me out as a kid but I still loved it. That part when the keeper pops up in the coffin always had me on edge, I always had to brace myself for it and knew it was gonna happen every time.
Tales from the crypt raised me
I just love the crypt keeper
yes, i saw every episode back in the 90's when I was a kid on HBO.....miss those days...
Where were your god damn parents? They just abandoned you in front of the tv when a horror show was playing?
you gave me quite the raise... in the pants
Papa’s maybe.
One of my favorite episodes is the one about the a guy who dies but it turns out he's still alive but can't move or speak and he has to sit through his own autopsy, feeling everything that's being done to him. That is such a terrifying concept and it gave me the chills!
That would be "You, Murderer". Excellent episode!
@@ronaldshank7589 Don't think so, I re-watched the series recently and the aforementioned plot was in Abra Cadaver
@@timexi5704 You have a good point. However, in Abra Cadaver, the man THINKS he's dead, due to the effect of the drug that his drink was laced with. With You, Murderer, the man's brain is indeed working, although, to the outside world, and by all appearances, he definitely SEEMS to be dead. Both You, Murderer and Abra Cadaver are very well put-together stories...at least, in my opinion. Would you agree, or disagree?
"The Switch" and "Yellow" are my two favorites.
I wish Yellow were a full-length film.
The episode "Yellow" is essentially the Stanley Kubrick movie "Paths of Glory," which Kirk Douglass is also in.
I'll have to check that out.
Great list. Did you know there was a Tales from the Crypt anthology movie from 1972? It had the original version of All Through the Night starring Joan Collins.

I saw that movie several months ago. Very horrific, and each of those people sitting there were eventually cast into Hell for their wickedness. A totally morbid movie, indeed!
I just found that out today.
Best 2 episodes are What’s Cooking and Cutting Cards. What’s Cooking is my favorite and I watch it at least once a year. Thank you for the video!
One of the only dvd sets I’ve never regretted buying 🔪
The great thing about this show is how everyone has a favorite episode, and they’re all so enjoyable in their own way. This show deserves a release on streaming so it can get love from old and new generations.
One of my friends as a kid used to have some episodes on VHS ^^
Scared the shit out of me.. didn't help that he lived in a house surrounded by woods, making it a creepy location too.
Had to go rewatch the 'cutting cards' one on UA-cam - hahaha can't belive I was scare of this! It's soo cheesy! :D
Same here the crypt keeper was my biggest fear as a child
Nick Estrada i guess me and my children are weird we think hes cute
Cheep Cheep nightmare house!!😮 i would have never slept lol
I would add People Who Live In Brass Hearses and What's Cookin'
Christopher Reeves was so damn good in that. It honestly made me want steak really bad regardless of the plot.
Plus how often do you see Superman duke it out with John Bender over Meatloaf.
my fav ep is the college ep were the pledges have to go inside this haunted house and impress the girls and turns out that the girls are dead and chop them up with chainsaw and eat them
What about Demon Knight?! That one was awesome!
William Sadler, Billy Zane and Jada Pinkett Smith are fantastic in that episode.
Wonderful cast, great effects, great humor and NO crappy cgi, Demon Knight is one of the best 90s horror flix.
Dragon 519 That and Bordello of blood are Movies not an episode
There’s actually (technically) 3 movies
That's a movie
Never got the appeal of DK (I know that’s blasphemy) but BOB was a way better film imho
Really love your list. I also loved the Lower Berth, The Assassin, and Top Billing episodes.
The Assassin...thats my shit!
I loved only skin deep I think it was called .2 season .episode 4 or 5 I think .
shadowlinkbds good list
Dwayne King me too
i love lower berth, it's a pretty sweet episode, if i remember correctly.
My favorite is the one where the sleezy talkshow host explores the haunted house. Scared the sh-t out of me when I was a kid.
YEP, the episode was titled 'television terror'.
Thank you for reminding how great these were.
Collection Completed, King of the Road, and Dig That Cat are my favorites. I love this show. It's like Creepshow.
Ventriloquist Dummy, Split Personality, Strung Along, Till Death, and What’s Cookin were my favorite episodes
I love that yellow was featured in hear, it may not have been a typical tale from the crypt, but the execution and ruthlessness of it was perfect. Definitely one of my favorites
I really liked "Death of Some Salesmen" and "Loved to Death" too, though the latter one is a bit too cliche, but the they were really funny =) "The sales men sold me a color TV that didn't work. Till I fixed it! Now it's a color TV (shows salesman body parts inside a TV)!"
It is very difficult finding a legitimate NOSTALGIA BOX, but this was a bullseye for me! Viewed every episode from pilot on HBO as a kid. Thanx SOOO much for the memories._. 😏
No way Jose the best episode is when Tim Curry played all three characters and they killed salesman
God I've been watching cinemassacare for years.
Still watchin, buddy?
Good list!
A couple episodes that I think should crack the Top 10 are Three's a Crowd, Television Terror, Mournin' Mess, Two for the Show, and The Trap. Three's a Crowd's ending is so twisted. Television Terror is super creepy. Mournin' Mess has the classic funny Tales twist. Two for the Show is one of those awesome Crime/Shock Suspense Story episodes. And lastly, the Trap, Lou Paloma is one of the best characters in the show - #2 behind Joe Pesci's of course :)
BitsAndGlory dude you know your TFTC. The one with Tim Ross as the painter was awesome as well
I watched Three’s A Crowd when I was about 10yrs old. I still remember to this day. That was so twisted. Loved it haha
I always loved this show as a kid. It was actually on national TV in Mexico for a long time, uncensored but relegated to only night time showing, at around 11 pm. It was the coolest thing to watch alongside Are you Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps.
The episode with Morton Downey Jr. Was my favorite.
Television Horror is indeed a great episode. Still gives me the creeps.
Just watched this hoping you had "Cutting Cards" or what I call Chop Poker on your list. Glad to see it at the top. What a classic, crazy and funny episode!
Lance Henriksen's the man.
I wish you would do more reviews on these shows, I grew up watching them and it brings back memories of a lost time. I don't have time to watch these episodes again so I love watching reviews on classic stuff!
"Cutting Cards" is my favorite too! Directed by Walter Hill :D
you never disappoint around the holidays! lots of great content this week!
BRING BACK THE 90'S
Bring back the 80s!
GODDAMN! I watched The Third Pig when I was really young and I could never remember the name of it or how to find it! I caught the episode after the intro so I had no idea it was even a Tales From the Crypt. Thank you James! That's been driving me crazy for over twenty years.
I actually really enjoyed the cartoon series. While it wasn't as violent, it was intense and rather dark at times. Also, it had some petty insightful messages.
Did anyone ever actually get killed it?
Yes and no. Some of them were killed, or their fates were left ambiguous.
Yeah the cartoons great but this is better
The one where they get trapped in the mall after hours really scared me.
I like the cartoon too.
Now I know which episodes to go back and check out. Thanks James for sharing your favorites with us.
Hearing James' voice almost chills my need for avgn
I immediately thought of Cutting Cards. Good video.
Death of some salesman?
It's so GREAT you didnt spoil them good work James thanks!!!
I’m sorry but we all know “You, Murderer” is the best episode
Or the episode with Morton Downy Jr in that haunted house
@@leroysinclair8499 The last scene shows ol'Morton just "Hanging around"...by his Tie, that is💀👿😈👿😈!!!!!
Ronald Shank that episode scared the shit out of me
Hey i really want to say thank you, you introduced me to the style of old horror movies and i love it. I greatly enjoy what you do.
This top 10 list could easily be in reverse for me.
One of my favorites was Top Billing. It's where this guy tries to get a role as Hamlet, for a play, then he finds out his role is really Yorick.
Kevin Yagher was my dad's best man in his wedding with my mom.
Korman's kalamity and television terror will always be the most memorable to me.
Fucking loving the scary movie reviews and Halloween themed shows. Super awesome content new it takes a lot of work to keep these coming so fast but it's awesome
I LOVE THE SHOWS 2 BUT SOME SOME IDOT TOOK OFF THE CHILLER CHANEL SO STUPID 257 HAD THE BEST HORROR MOVIES & SHOES EVER!!!! HATE THEY TOOK OFF!!!! I LOVE HORROR MOVIES STHEPEN KING MY FAV!!!
What a great Top 10 idea. I hope my favourite episode makes the list!
please do this for the goosebumps series
the humans on the reality show produced by monsters was my favorite !
A2Z83 not scary but were a bit entertaining, well some of them were
A2Z83 No it wasn’t bad.
Forgive me if this has been said already but the Santa one was actually a remake from the original Tales From the Crypt movie that I think came out in 1972. Definitely worth watching!
Ann Coulter was absolutely fantastic in these!
You mean,"she who shall not be named"
Lol, good work, it was funny, and you triggered people. I always compared her to Skeletor tho.
Liberals: 'Sexism is bad and should be disavowed under any circumstance.'
Liberals: 'Sexism can be acceptable if it is against a woman who doesn't share our political views.'
Ann Coulter would be just as horrifying if she were male, tho.
bwahah it's like you insulted their mom or something
Loved tales from the crypt! Well done
Yellow feels like a movie because it's based off the film, Paths of Glory starring Kirk Douglas. The film was directed by Kubrick.
E.C used to do three or four stories an issue. Insane, right? So they ended up copying some of the stories they read. They did sign a deal with Ray Bradbury after he caught them using one of his stories, but I imagine a lot of other authors got screwed.

Great show. Split Seconds, Collection Completed, What's Cookin, and Death of some Salesmen are my favorites.
My personal favorite was always Dig That Cat... He's Real Gone.
Yellow is one of my favorites also. I always loved watching tales from the crypt when I was a kid. Good memories.
I would also add People Who Live in Brass Hearses, come on Bill Paxton & Brad Dourif, you cant go wrong.
Your dialogue an storytelling is awesome.
How do you not bring up "Paths of Glory"?
My favorite episodes
Yellow
Three's a Crowd
Loved to Death
The Switch
You, Murderer
The Man Who Was Death
Hey James, what about a top ten for the 80's revival of Twilight Zone? Always thought it was underestimated and there are some great episodes like the one with the woman stopping the time right before a nuclear attack. And it's even directed by Wes Craven!
mathmss, the 80's Twilight Zone was amazing! I was going to suggest James to do a top ten as well. I just watched the entire series on DVD and I loved a majority of the episodes, I will never understand the hate this series gets.

I can’t believe I remembered every one of these.. great list!
I never got a chance to watch the show when it came out. My family didn't have HBO and even when I was able to watch HBO at my Grandma's house, I was too spooked. Unfortunately, by the time I was old enough to watch it, I only managed to watch Bordello of Blood, which was constantly repeated on HBO, Spike, and a few other channels.
That's true, but I just wish I was able to see more Tales. Dennis Miller can only hold you over so long.
I was wondering when this would come up great video!!
My fav episode is For Cryin' Out Loud.
Silly Gir mine as well. I was disappointed that one wasn’t on the list.
Is the one with the guy who had the voice that only he could hear? Then he basically destroyed his hearing but the voice was still torturing him?
winsbeyond82 yes
Yea that should have made the list. Good list anyhow.
If I remember correctly, the voice was portrayed by the late Sam Kinison.
I have so many of the comics from way back when I used to collect the oldies. Great show!
Hey James have you ever heard of the show Amazing Stories? I believe it was also it's era and was basically the same concept of this show- an anthology inspired by horror dime-comics, but thete were also many non horror episodes.

i remember that show... the one with the belly gunner cartoonist who draws wheels on the plane so it can land safely. pretty cool show.
Huge fan of the show and cutting cards is so iconic for me I’d watch it any day never gets old
This Show was so Fucking Hardcore as Shit!
I loved staying up to watch this as a kid. And crypt keeper was awesome too
You upload at the WEIRDEST times.
tigereye8593 Probs staying up late and editing
I think what it is... it takes a while to upload long videos. He probably starts uploading around 11pm or something and then it finalizes around 3 or 4 in the morning.
You can publish a video whenever you want without doing anything, just set the date and time and it does its thing on its own. A lot of UA-camres upload super late. John Oliver, A Dose Of Buckley, GameSack. Probably has to do with their audience, maybe we're just up at the weirdest times.
Ever heard of time zones?
I remember all these like I watched them yesterday, What a memorable era of TV.
My favorite was the episode.with William Sadler as the laid-off executioner turned vigilante.
Ahhh.....The man who was Death. Season 1, episode 1
I've always loved anthology shows like Tales from the crypt. Obviously the most well known is Twilight Zone, but there's also Outer limits, Monsters, Ray Bradbury theater, Tales from the dark side, perversions of science, just to name the ones off the top of my head.
Hold up this was on HBO???
I remember as a kid watching tales from the crypt on Fox. Did something happen that I don't know about did the series get shitty and then move to fox?
It merely went into syndication. The main difference between the two is *HBO* aired their episodes uncut. Full nudity, obscenities, etc.
Are u thinking of fright nite Friday. Came on about 11 or 12 at nite?
frank joeson I remember Fright night but I do remember tales from the crypt coming on at around 11 PM or 12 AM on Fox at some point. I know this because at that age my family did not have cable and I remember the crypt keeper being the host of the show.
Shawn Thompson i'm pretty sure that was the case. I wish they had it on HBOGO it would be nice to go back and see the uncensored version.
JoE KeRr There would've been no way of me knowing this when I was a kid I had no cable what so ever I honestly thought this was a original Fox show up until today. Damn Tales from the crypt was incredible I even enjoyed the cartoon I could imagine how much better it would've been on HBO
killer!! dig it! your #10 was my all time favorite as a kid. time to get out the boxsets n binge. cheers
By the way, you ever see the "Demon Knight" episode?
That one's my favorite.
While that was a movie, not an episode, I definitely agree. It was an excellent movie! Better than Bordello of Blood any day!
Great list. It has all my favorites. They were the ones that stand out the most to me as i havent seen the show in about 20 years. Most of the other lists ive seen are more concerned with the quality of the episodes rather than the the ones that are just plain fun and memorable. The only one i would add is the one where christopher reeves owns a restaraunt and changes his menu from squid based dishes
to a certain secret ingredient that ends up being a huge hit.
So it's like The Twilight Zone, but edgier?
TZ is more Sci-Fi and complex issues of morality .. This is just pure funny horror and revenge
90s Outer Limits is pretty damn good but 80's TZ sucked
I grew up watching 80's TZ. It was great! Sure, there was quite a few stinkers, but the good ones made up for it. You really think episodes like "To See The Invisible Man", "Profile In Silver", and "Dead Run" sucked?
Nah
That one episode Loved To Death had a similar storyline with The Twilight Zone episode The Chaser. The difference is the endings. In The Chaser Roger attempts to poison his wife Leila but changes his mind when she tells him she's pregnant! In Loved To Death Edward ended up poisoning himself instead of Miranda. He ends up in the afterlife shortly being joined by Miranda who killed herself by jumping out the window! He screams in torment at the thought of them being together for eternity!
Man TFTC was so good. Nice upload!

It doesn't really matter who got triggered, a jackass is still a jackass
I agree with your number 1. It truly felt like a perfect Crypt episode
I miss the whole era. I bet the liberals wouldn’t let you make some of the episodes.
I liked Came The Dawn with Brooke Shields,that was my favorite.
THe scarriest episodes were the ones that were rehashed and shown years later with no indication from the thumbnail that it was from years ago.
Wait what
Wow you picked almost all my favorite episodes too. Great list
I saw these when I was a kid and remembered every one you mentioned.
I enjoyed this show as an adult. The crypt keepers laugh always scared me when i was a kid. The good old days.
Love this Halloween thing your doing!!
Television Terror was the episode that really got me scared as a kid when I watch it late night on tv when it air in syndication.
