TALES FROM THE CRYPT (Theatrical Release Canada 1972)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.4|5.0 Starsìììì

Tales From the Crypt examines how sin and punishment play with each other in an entertaining, albeit horrifying, story that not only has a good concept, but provides good acting and portrayal of storyline. It is worth viewing with its presentation of the bad things that people did and how those actions catch up with them.
