Editorial Reviews

In this anthology series, the legendary 1950's comic book rises from the dead as one of the most innovative, terrifying and frightfully funny horror shows on television. Each bone chilling adventure features a star-studded cast and is hosted by its slightly decaying master of ceremonies, the Crypt Keeper. From behind the camera, Tales From The Crypt boasts some of Hollywood's top talent and biggest names from television and films; from producers, to directors to composers. So, turn down the lights, lock your doors and join the Crypt Keeper with his fiendishly famous friends for unforgettable adventures, macabre, murder and mayhem.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the earlier "Crypt's" , it is also one of the best!, June 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tales from the Crypt, Vol. 2 - Only Sin Deep/ Lover Come Hack To Me/Collection Completed [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Considered to be "Volume 2" of our series, I will be reviewing "...Only Sin Deep" , "Lover Come Hack To Me" , and "Collection Complete" , all contained in the approximate 90-minute video. "..Only Sin Deep" , starring Lea Thompson, is the tale of a street girl who just needs a little cash. She gets it, all right, from a pawn store owner, in an unusual way. She rises to the top of her game, but no sooner does she notice something is changing...something truely horrifying.

"Lover Come Hack To Me" , starring Stephen Shellen , is the story of tortured love. When a gold digger marries a wealthy young lady, things really heat up the wedding night...just not the way you might think. Amanda Plummer co-stars in this houmerous shocker, professing the old adage: "What Goes around...comes around". "Collection Completed" is the story of a fresh off reiree, Jonas (M. Emmet Walsh) who looks forward to spending quality time with his loving wife Anita (Audra Lindley) , if only she did'nt have so many pesky animals! How Jonas hates them! So he starts a new hobby. Taxidermy. Perhaps Anita will follow up likewise...just not in the way you expect. These gory tales would make any horror buff proud. And just to make things clear, I am NOT writing any of my reviews from the back of the box! These are mine! Later!

5.0 out of 5 stars ALL 3!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!!!, November 28, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Tales from the Crypt, Vol. 2 - Only Sin Deep/ Lover Come Hack To Me/Collection Completed [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I LOVED ALL THREE OF THESE STORIES. THE FIRST, ONLY SIN DEEP HAS GREAT ACTING FROM LEA THOMPSON, AND IS SCRIPTED VERY WELL. THE SECOND STORY DOESNT HAVE ANY GREAT TWISTS, AND IS VERY PREDICTABLE, BUT IS STILL VERY ENTERTAINING. THE THIRD STORY IS EXTRODINARY IT HAS A GREAT TWIST AT THE END, AND A VERY COMEDIC STRUCTURE. THIS TAPE IS WELL WORTH A WATCH. END

5.0 out of 5 stars 3 classic Tales from the Crypt episodes, December 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Tales from the Crypt, Vol. 2 - Only Sin Deep/ Lover Come Hack To Me/Collection Completed [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I've owned this video for a long time now but it is always fun to watch. Only Sin Deep is such a great story and Lea Thompson does such a great job in it. Lover Come Hack to Me is the second story in the video and it is a pretty creepy tale, but the third episode Collection Completed is more comical. Maybe they should have titled this video Tales from the Crypt Wives from hell, considering all three episides have somthing to do with woman viciously killing their men. If you liked the Tales from the Crypt t.v. show, then you will really enjoy all three of these classic episodes.
