Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

What's Cookin' - Business stinks at the all-squid diner, and Fred (Christopher Reeve) can't pay the rent. But the "steaks" get even higher when his landlord (Meatloaf) is the suspected victim of a real "butcher" job. Now business is sizzling and folks are "hooked" on Fred's cooking. Come dinnertime, you never know who'll be hanging around...in the freezer!
Split Personality - For two-bit gambler Stetson (Joe Pesci), good things come in pairs. He hits the jackpot when he meets April and June, billionaire twins with time to kill. Betting double or nothing, he marries both - one to his twin "brother." When the girls discover he's been two-timing them, it leads to a nasty separation. As Ye Sow - Leo (Hector Elizondo) worships his wife (Patsy Kensit), but he fears she's not exactly keeping the faith. It seems she's getting more than wine and wafers from the local priest (John Shea). Fighting hellfire with hellfire, Leo strikes a devilish pact - only to learn what happens when you go to confession and don't have a prayer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Supurb acting by supurb talent in this freakish "'Crypt"., June 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tales From the Crypt: What's Cookin, Split Personality, As Ye Sow [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This "Tales From The Crypt" video seemingly features great talent from great film stars past and present. From this video, I'll be reviewing "What's Cookin'?" , "Split Personality" and "As Ye Sow" . "What's Cookin'?", starring Christopher Reed (one of his best and most recent before his accident) , and Meatloaf (?!) , this is a houmerous tale of...well...kind of canibalisim, I guess. Let's just say some "special" meat is imported. Lot's of tounge-in-cheek material. The kind of 'Crypt you'd bring home to mom. "Split Personality" , featuring award winning actor Joe Pesci is a houmerous tale as well, as he dates two identical sisters at the same time, fooling them into thinking that he himself has a twin (he does not) . It's not untill he marries BOTH untill things REALLY heat up.... "As Ye Sow" , starring Hector Elizondo, John Shea and Patsy Kensit is a tale of a man who believes his wife to be cheating on him with a local priest. However, things are not always as they seem, as ending draws to a very shocking yet ironic end. Overall, another great "Tales From The Crypt" video. They're all good with variety. "What's Cookin'?" has humor, "Split Personality" has that gore you crave, and "As Ye Sow" is a great date 'Crypt! Well. No, not really, it's not. Later!

THE FIRST STORIE, WELL COOKED HAMS IS GREAT, AND HAS A VERY ENTERTAINING STORIE. THE SECOND, SPLIT PERSONALITY IS EVEN BETTER, WITH AN AMAZING PERFORMANCE FROM JOE PESCI. THE THIRD IS THE BEST, IT HAS AN EXCELLENT STORY, AND A GREAT PERFORMANCE BY HECTOR ELIZONDO. MUST SEE!!!!!!!! END
