About this product

Product Information

This British movie was based on the TALES FROM THE CRYPT series of comic books, which spawned several subsequent movies (and many imitators), at least one television series, and a whole new wave of comic books. Released in 1972, this movie has five episodes based on Gaines' stories, each introduced by Sir Ralph Richardson as the eerily cheery Crypt Keeper. His comedic approach to the role was misunderstood at the time, as reviewers expected a more solemn approach to horror. In 'All Through the House', Santa Claus is someone to avoid. 'In Reflection of Death' it takes some people a while to realize the truth about themselves. In 'Poetic Justice' death cannot prevent one man's revenge. The episode 'Blind Alley' demonstrates a new use for razor blades. 'Wish You Were Here' cautions against taking native artifacts lightly (among other things). Among the stars featured are Peter Cushing, Joan Collins and Patrick Magee.

  • 5 creepy tales

    These 5 tales remind of Tales of the Unexpected or the Hammer House of Horror television programmes of the 70s and 80s. If you have ever watched and enjoyed them you will love this dvd too. Just like the Tales of the Unexpected they have a twist at the end. Each is well put together and are very atmospheric. The picture quality is very good, although the sound needs a turn up, but considering these date back to 1972 they are still very watchable. The acting is very good and stars 2 very famous faces, of Joan Collins (viewers may be aware she starred in Dynasty in the 80s as Alexis) and then there is of course Peter Cushing. Recommend this dvd. If you like this you may like to buy the Vault of Horror to add to your collection, which is very similar.
