Cadaverous scream legend/all-around punster the Crypt Keeper hosts these forays of fright and fun based on classic E.C. Comics tales from back in the day - and drawing on the talents of top filmmakers Richard Donner, Walter Hill, Joel Silver, Robert Zemeckis and others. So belly up to the bar and name your poison. Is it a deranged Santa on a personal slay ride? A man surgically implanted with as many lives (and deaths) as a cat? Honeymooners who each want the other to fulfill the 'til death vow pronto? These and more terror-rific tales await. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

Lots of extraordinary episodes, a mass of average ones and also a couple of really bad ones. A pleasant project where a lot of talented and famous names started out, or gained valuable experience. This includes screenwriters, directors and actors. Its main quality lies in the unforgettable presenter with a very strange sense of humor. Pleasant bedtime viewing for adults on Friday evenings. Split Second (5/5) One of the best episodes. Better not to let on anything about it - just let the Crypt Keeper keep you entertained... Lumberjack sushi roll is on the menu.

For horror fans, it is obligatory, for others a pleasant opportunity to briefly and mostly above-average familiarize themselves with the essence of the genre. Naturally, among a large number of episodes, there are also unremarkable pieces, but imaginative stories with often surprising twists and the appropriate atmosphere prevail. The half-hour duration prevents the creation of "cotton stuffing" known from feature films. A great advantage is the chosen light-hearted form, where creators play with genre clichés and viewer expectations in a slightly parodic spirit. Overall impression: 80%.
