Amicus Horror?

Is anyone familiar with this production company? I recently watched a few of these by sheer coincidence. I decided to watch all the Peter Cushing movies I own that I have yet to watch. I watched Tales From the Crypt, The HOuse that Dripped Blood, and Dr. Terrors House of Horrors. Well the first coincidence I noticed besides Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, was that they were all Vignette type horrors (like Trick r treat or Creepshow), and on the house that dripped Blood, It finally hit me that they were all released by this Amicus company. I feel rather stupid since this is the first I'm hearing about them. I mean, I don't really read a lot about horror movies or anything, I just watch them. So I can sort of blame my ignorance on that, but I never heard them mentioned on any horror message boards before.

My questions are, is anyone really into them? Are they all vignette style? and is Peter Cushing and Chris Lee in them? And Does anyone have any particular favorites?
