Tales From The Darkside was originally released in 1990. It’s a comedy horror anthology film directed by John Harrison, and based on the anthology television series Tales from the Darkside. The first time I watch this film it scared the hell out of me. All four ghoulish fables are filled with horrors that will satisfy any horror fan. The cover art alone will make you want to buy this Collector’s Edition Blu-ray. The release has been pushed back to August 11th. You can pre-order a copy at Scream Factory.
Synopsis
Brace yourself for some KILLER stories.
From the clever and creepy minds of Stephen King (Pet Sematary), Michael McDowell (Beetlejuice), George A. Romero (Dawn Of The Dead) and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (creator of Sherlock Holmes), comes an all-star anthology of horror directed by John Harrison.
To keep from being eaten by a modern-day witch (Deborah Harry, Videodrome), a young paperboy weaves three twisted stories to distract her. In “Lot 249,” a vengeful college student (Steve Buscemi, Fargo) resuscitates an evil mummy to teach unsuspecting student bodies (Julianne Moore, Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Christian Slater, Mr. Robot) a lesson in terror. Then, “Cat From Hell” is a furry black feline who cannot be killed … he may have nine lives, but those who cross his path are not so lucky. Finally, in “Lover’s Vow,” a stone gargoyle comes to life … to commit murder. In this classic cult favorite, fear comes in threes.
