Hello! My friends and I love the old "Tales From the Darkside" and we make a parody web series called "Sandwich of Terror." So, if you like short horror comedy (each episode is 5 minutes long), please check it out and let me know what you think.

Haha- the ham radio bit was funny. Kind of hilarious, actually. "the Stinkening" was just stupid.

I pretty much agree with NE the first segment was hilarious. I also enjoyed the parrot segment quite a bit.

Thanks for checking them out, Crypt and NE.
This series is a work in progress, so any more detailed feedback would be great. What in particular worked for the segments you liked? Did you like the interstitial material, like the weatherman and the fake show promos?

Personally I enjoyed the weatherman segments. It wasn't anything spectacular or anything but a nice change of pace that I found myself laughing at.

That was enjoyable. I thought the first segment was better, the idea of loads of scientists travelling within the five minutes was funny. The second one wasnt as good but had a cute ending!
The two adverts didnt work this time round for me but its a good little series you've got here.

I liked this episode a lot. The time travel bit made me laugh out loud several times. Great job on the special effects too!
I liked the moron preaching about safe sex too- especially the first one where he throws the football. Also the sandwich parts were funny this time as well- especially when he flips over the cheese on the sloppy joe to reveal the turkey.
The witch segment started out well, but fell apart about half way through, IMO. Still, it was pretty funny.
Great job!
