i got a ton of episodes on tape somewhere....it used to be on the sci-fi channel alot...in the mid-late 90's...before that it was on public tv late sat nites...that was probably like 1988,89....real cool show....great opening theme...there was also a show called monsters in the same vein, same era, but a lot sillier.

ya, I watched it when I was a wee little lad. lol. I rented the Tales From The Dark Side Movie a while ago, it was pretty entertaining. It was devided into 5 stories,(kinda like Creepshow) these stories were more or less like the show, except more bloody and explicit, and every once and a while there was an actor that I've heard of.

Tales From the Darkside is still my favorite of any horror anthology tv shows (except the original T.Z.). You can find copies of this show on eBay, but they're pretty expensive, and also bootlegs. My favorite episode is still the pilot, "Trick or Treat."

Gee, thanks FCC for making it illegal to have good horror TV programming!!! mothertruckers....

good to know. My fav episode was not really an episode, it was off of the movie, but it was nice and bloody. It was about a mummy who preformed the mummifieing rituals on living poeple. He pulls this guy's brains out of his nose with a clothes hanger. LOL!

ya, i dont understand why they havent put it on dvd yet. i could see that being a big seller, at least among horror fans.

A great show with one of the scariest theme musics ever. The movie was pretty good too.
