This review is from: Tales from the Crypt: The Complete Seasons 1 and 2 (DVD)

The Tales From the Crypt series was some of the best television airing back in the final year of the 80s and into the early 90s. Deliberately over the top. Deliberately funny. Deliberately campy at times. Deliberately scary. Deliberately gory. Deliberately one of HBO's finest creations.

The episodes are all based on EC Comics of old...mostly from the self titled Tales From the Crypt and Vault of Horror comic books. But I'd guess that 90% of you reading this already know that, and you're here as I am delighted that it is finally out on DVD.

For those that have not seen these wonderfully entertaining episodes of dark humor and horror...if you're into the genre this collection and any of the other HBO seasonal Tales From the Crypt releases are for you.

Hit the Buy button. These'll kill ya!

This review is from: Tales from the Crypt: The Complete Seasons 1 and 2 (DVD)

I highly recommend this show if you like scary but not overly gory. I love scary/horror movies and my friend doesn't but we can both watch Tales from the Crypt and enjoy it.

My only complaint is that you can buy Season 1 and 2 for almost half the price that amazon is listing it on this page. So buy them separately or it's also sold as a complete set (seasons 1-5), which I'd recommend if you really love the show.
