This week on So, You Like Horror?, I welcome returning co-host Scott from Up North to discuss one of the most beloved horror anthology series of all time: Tales from the Crypt. From its roots in the legendary EC Comics to its groundbreaking run on HBO, Tales from the Crypt helped redefine what horror television could be. We explore the history of the series, the creation of the iconic Crypt Keeper, and how the show's blend of dark humor, graphic horror, and twist endings made it a cultural phenomenon. We also discuss some of the show's most memorable episodes, including "And All Through the House," "Television Terror," "The Man Who Was Death," and "Dig That Cat… He's Real Gone," while examining the recurring themes of greed, revenge, morality, and poetic justice that defined the series. Along the way, we look at the show's influence on modern anthology horror, its connection to EC Comics, and why it remains a favorite among horror fans decades after its original run. Does Tales from the Crypt still hold up today? Which episodes are essential viewing? And could the Crypt Keeper ever make a successful comeback? Join us as we revisit one of horror television's most influential and entertaining series. Topics Include: History of Tales from the Crypt EC Comics and horror anthology storytelling The Crypt Keeper's legacy Best and most memorable episodes Dark humor and horror television HBO's impact on horror programming Horror anthology series rankings The show's lasting influence on modern horror #TalesFromTheCrypt #HorrorPodcast #HorrorTV #CryptKeeper #ECComics #HorrorAnthology #ClassicHorror #HBO #SoYouLikeHorror #HorrorFans

We still have to finish getting through these animated episodes of "Tales From the Cryptkeeper" and here we are with one of the worst... "Chuck and Melvin and the Beanstalk."
The concept of the movie double feature originated in the 1930s, and now, when you see a good pairing, it's tough not to carve out four hours for a gluttonous moviegoing soiree. But what makes a good double feature? What is the thought process for ensuring one film fits seamlessly with the next? Tonight, the AHH Crew sets out to get some answers, as they play a little game revolving around setting up the perfect double feature. Ever played Cards Against Humanity? Yeah, it's kinda like that.But first: TALES FROM THE CRYPT heads to Shudder this Friday, and the unshakable dread of the short film DEAD GRANDMA.

This week's bonus we're talking about the animated "Tales From the Cryptkeeper" and the episode "Growing Pains" which is about loving plants a bit too much.
YES! We're celebrating black horror for Black History month with a look at Rusty Cundieff's truly underrated horror anthology, Tales From The Hood. The film's stand-in for the Cryptkeeper, an unhinged mortician played full-tilt crazy by Clarence Williams III, guides three gangbangers through four tales of urban woe and in the process addresses police violence, domestic abuse, racism, and cycles of gang violence in a truly unexpected way. In Rogue Cop Revelation, a black police officer is haunted by the spirit of a political activist whose murder he payed a role in covering up. Unable to rest, the spirit demands the souls of the cops who killed him. In Boys Do Get Bruised young Walter lies awake at night, terrorized by a monster that stalks the halls of his home by night. In the day, his teacher notices bruises on Walter that can't be explained by the usual schoolyard bullies. Walter's imagination harnesses a terrible power to stop the violence taking place in his home. In KKK Comeuppance, a racist candidate for governor in a southern state comes under attack by the spirits of restless dead slaves when he buys an antebellum plantation as a deliberate fuck you to the black community he's campaigning in. They'll get their revenge by way of animated dolls that house their spirits. In the final episode, Hardcore Conversion, a gangbanger is given a second chance when he consents to a behavior modification program that reconditions his violent tendencies by confronting him with the consequences of his actions and equates it to the same violence committed on black people by white mobs. Will he change his ways?

In this bonus, we are discussing what is probably the worst episode of the animated Tales From the Cryptkeeper we've come across - Dead Men Don't Jump
Nothing says Christmas like a killer Santa Claus! "...And All Through the House" is just one highly effective tale from the five-story anthology film from Amicus, Tales from the Crypt (1972.) The characters in each one of them get what's coming to them, whether it's because they're husband killers, wife cheaters, greedy real estate investors, ruthless financiers, or selfish directors of a home for the blind. Join Richard, Jeff, and the Cryptkeeper in watching their stories and judging their fates. Maybe you'll learn a lesson or two... these despicable human beings do not.
In this bonus, as we look at an episode of the animated "Tales From the Cryptkeeper" we are confronted with old-timey misogyny and prejudice in "All the Gory Details"
Alan L. Katz, more widely recognized as Al Katz, played an instrumental role in transforming the comic book series "Tales from the Crypt" into a successful television show that seamlessly blended horror and dark humor. Despite arriving in Los Angeles in 1985 without traditional credentials, Katz drew upon his background in comedy and drama from Vassar College to infuse the series with a unique perspective, particularly in crafting the memorable Crypt Keeper character. His deep personal connection to comic books and horror allowed Katz to navigate the adaptation process with creativity and authenticity, ensuring the show's success and leaving a lasting impact on the horror genre with projects like the 1995 movie "Demon Knight." Beyond television, Katz has embraced podcasting as a way to continue his storytelling journey, demonstrating a commitment to overcoming traditional industry barriers and directly engaging with audiences.(00:06:34) Unconventional Journey: Tales from the Crypt(00:10:42) Crypt Keeper's Creation and Development in Show(00:11:41) "Creating the Unique Crypt Keeper Persona"(00:22:35) "Appreciating Practical Effects in Demon Knight Movie"(00:24:34) DreamWorks Deal Alters Film Production Plans(00:33:24) Influential Casting Decisions in Bordello of Blood(00:39:38) Unique Lighting Challenges in Vancouver Productions(00:48:50) Navigating Challenges in Script Development for Film and TV(00:50:14) Podcasts Revolutionize Creative Industry Power Dynamics(00:53:30) Intense Relationships Among Genetically Related Individuals

Good evening, ladies and ghouls, it's spooky season so we are taking a look at the classic HBO anthology series Tales From the Crypt. We debate many important questions, like "Should the Cryptkeeper be canceled?" and "Why is the last episode of this an animated twist on the Three Little Pigs?"

Welcome to the DMF! I'm Justin Younts, and today we're diving deep into the world of the Crypt Keeper. You might be wondering, who is this enigmatic character? Well, it's me! Yes, the Crypt Keeper is a reflection of my creative journey, filtered through a unique lens. In this video, I share how the character evolved from a simple puppet into a franchise phenomenon. It all started with the writing. In the early seasons, the Crypt Keeper was just a talking puppet, but everything changed in season three when we gave him an interior life. This transformation allowed the voice actor, John, to truly embody the character, making him relatable and engaging. The writing team and I began to think differently about the Crypt Keeper, and that shift was crucial. Suddenly, he wasn't just delivering lines; he had a perspective and a point of view that resonated with audiences. This newfound depth led to explosive popularity, and even HBO recognized the potential, ordering more seasons. The Crypt Keeper became a cultural icon, leading to merchandise deals and even a kid's show! But it wasn't all smooth sailing. I recount the challenges we faced, including a last-minute change from a project we were passionate about to a film that nobody wanted to make. This shift in creative direction taught me valuable lessons about the industry and the importance of staying true to your vision. Join me as I share the highs and lows of bringing the Crypt Keeper to life and the creative freedom we experienced along the way.

PART I The guy who is eternally on the Enemies List, the 45th and 47th president -- aka Vladdy's Boy, aka Don the Con, aka F*ckboi Von Clownface -- is getting an extra special mention this week. Every week, there are a million reasons to nominate Trump the Chump, but this week, Trump revealed his pathetic nature for all of MAGA to bear witness. First, let us tee this up. Virginia Guiffre -- who was a survivor of Epstein, Maxwell, Prince Andrew, and others -- was critical to getting justice for the hundreds of victims. In a clip that went viral on Tuesday, Trump told reporters that he *knew* who Virginia Guiffre was, that she'd worked as a spa attendant at Mar-a-Lago, and that Epstein had "stolen" her from him. What Trump is really saying is that Guiffre was property, he was aware that she was being trafficked, and groomed/raped by sexual predators. He didn't care about Guiffre, only his ego, and that Epstein had gotten one over on him. Trump is no stranger to who or what Epstein was -- he joked that Epstein "liked girls on the younger side" and that, in Trump's 50th birthday card to Epstein, they shared a "wonderful secret." Distractions are still being volleyed against the wall -- but Trump knows he's hiding who he is and, this time, he can't outrun it. PART II Emil Bove -- who looks like a part-time crypt-keeper -- was confirmed to the federal bench this week, and it's plain as day that Trump will put Bove onto the Supreme Court bench. The Senate was aware that Bove had lied to them and was involved in several DOJ cover-ups, and yet they ran his nomination up the chain. The fact that one president will have seated four of the Supreme Court justices should raise the question: Is this really what's best for America? Bove is a particular corrupt flavor -- there's a MOB lawyer vibe to this guy. (Shut up, John Thune, no one wants to hear you wimper your phony "hope" for what you *think* he will do.) There's nothing the Senate won't do for Trump now. . Follow Lincoln Square on X at @lincolnsquareHQ, Bluesky at @lincolnsquare.media, and Substack at @lincolnquare. .

It's that time of year again, June baby!! One of Forever Midnight's favorite friends and Top Dawg Patrons is having a Birthday this month and asked if instead of choosing a movie if he could have Jef, Josh and Brian chat about a couple of Tales From The Crypt episodes. The FM3 couldn't be happier than to jump back into the tight dank coffin with the Crypt Keeper himself and dust off some of these fun tales of terror! So if you listeners wanna play along at home the episodes discussed in this podcast are: Season 4 - Episode 6 = "What's Cookin?" & Season 2 - Episode 9 = "Four sided Triangle"! These episodes are available on Youtube for free and you should definitely watch them before you listen, unless you know them by heart like the one and only Sylar Bedoya, then Just sit back and enjoy!! Happy Birthday Sylar and thank you for the years and years of support and love!
