Thread: Tales form the Darkside

  1. Tales form the Darkside

    Any of you old guys like me remember a little show called Tales from the Darkside? It was like the Twilight Zone only darker, and more horror. It really creeped me out when I was younger, intro was classic, evil atmoshphere. It seemed to be on at odd hours, but I enjoyed watching it by myself or with friends late at night. Not all episodes were great but the ones I saw were well done and often dark. Memory is a little sketchy, but they had one about this girl who knew when you were gonna die, and a tarot card one. They did release a Tales from the Darkside movie, not too much like the show. I liked the last story in the movie about the secret. Any fans?

  2. Not a bad show at all. As you suggested, it had the irony/twists of Twilight Zone, with the horror of Tales from the Crypt.

    Gotta love that intro, too -- the heavily filtered "mirror image" of the woods. Heh. Creepy.
    "Fiends! Animals! Bastards!"

  3. I never seen the tv show, but the movie version is one of my favorite horror movies. 3 pretty cool horror stories, very cool make up fx. 3rd story is my favorite too, it got a very cool atmopshere, and the end is pretty sad.

  4. The intro scared me shitless when I was little.

    Great show.

  5. Is this the movie that was split into 3 smaller movies, one was about the racist who was attacked by little voodo dolls, and the other was the one where the abused kid killed his abusive step dad by crumpling up a picture of him?

    If so, this is one of the STUPIDEST FUCKING MOVIES EVER MADE.

    EVER!

  6. Regus the Movie your talking about was Tales from the Hood, it wasn't that bad. I remember thinking it was pretty interesting how they mixed horror, with racial and urban issues.

  7. The voiceover on the intro used to scare me. Tidbit about the movie. It was originally going to be Creepshow 3, but they changed it because Tales From the Darkside was kinda popular at the time.

    Oh yeah! What a terrible movie.

    No kidding? I never heard that before. Oh well, I guess with those kinda anthology shows/movies, you can call it whatever you want. Anyone remember the show "Monsters"? It was the same idea as TFTD, but not quite as good.

  10. The Darkside > Twilight Zone > Monsters

    Then I got a Jag, took it home, and something seemed... not right.
