From the Back Cover

Split Second - Cocktail waitress Liz Kelly (Michelle Johnson) knows there's got to be more to life than serving "logger" to drunken woodsmen. So when a rich owner of a lumber company falls for her, she decides to take a "whack" at marriage. But when her husband turns out to be a sap, she "pines" for ax-citement in the arms of another man. However, in the end she can't escape from a terminal case of "board-em."
Werewolf Concerto - A vacation is a time to get away from the dog-eat-dog world. But for the guests at a secluded lodge, there's no time for R&R when a werewolf with a nasty "distemper" is on the loose. Timothy Dalton and Beverly D' Angelo are among the vacationers who could wind up "dog meat."
This'll Kill Ya - Hoping to give his medical research project a shot in the arm, George (Dylan McDermott) lies to the media about the progress of his work. But his coworkers go "hypo" when they learn of his unscrupulous scientific methods. They play on "innoculous" prank on George, which develops into a deadly lab experiment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the best "'Crypt" in all of the series! Chilling!, June 23, 1999

By A Customer

This video contains three of my favorite Crypt episodes in the entire series! Again, I cannot speak for my fellow reviewer, but I watched these videos nearly two-dozen times! I will be reviewing "Split Second" , "WereWolf Concerto", and "This'll Kill Ya" , all included on this delightful video. "Split Second" is a very provocative tale starring Michelle Johnson. Set at a lumberjack forrest, the head cheif marrys a sultry waitress at a local tavern. No sooner than a few monthes later, a young man shows up and stirs up jealousy with the cheif. Soon, Liz seduces him (whooo, momma!) ; the cheif catches the two in the act. It seems down hill now for the young boy at the enraged man...or is it? A shocker. "WereWolf Concerto" is a classic WereWolf tale, "Tales From The Crypt" style! Taking place in a secluded lodge, a the WereWolf is deffintly on the prowl...but is there another monster as well? Timothy Dalton stars in this epic horror-fest. Don't watch it on a full moon! "This'll Kill Ya" is the tale of a harmless practical joke...but the receiver does'nt know the punch line. What follows is a wrongful urge of revenge. Dylan McDermott stars in this hypnotic, suspensefull tale that is garenteed to leave you thinking, long after the Crypt Keeper says his fare wells. This is probably one of my more favorite installments, and if I like it, I know you will as well. I suggest buying it today! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Crypt, December 1, 2001

By	gobirds2 (New England) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This is the best tape to get from "Tales from the Crypt" by far. "Split Second" is the best and by far the spookiest. Timothy Dalton is very good in "Werewolf Concerto" a very gross tale indeed. "This'll Kill Ya" is a great tale if you ever think about stretching the truth a wee bit and what may happen to you. These are all great episodes.

3.0 out of 5 stars I HAVE TO ADMIT, November 28, 1997

By A Customer

THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEIR BEST TAPES, BUT IF YOU ARE A FAN OF TALES FROM THE CRYPT I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU GIVE ALL THREE EPISODES A SHOT. ITS NOT THAT THE EPISODES ARE BAD, ITS THAT THEY ARENT GOOD ENOUGH TO WANNA WATCH TWICE. END
