31 Days of Tales From the Crypt S:03 E:02

Welcome back kiddies! Cryptkeeper Bubbawheat here to introduce the second day of our 31 Days of Tales From the Crypt. Today’s episode comes from David Babbitt who is part of another site dedicated to the moving images inspired by comic book panels over at 24 Panels per Second, where he and the rest of the team cover comic book movies in a monthly podcast as well as the occasional episode on a new release or a written article. Here, he takes a look at a great episode from the third season that I always felt had a very western vibe to it even though it’s set in the modern day. Carrion Death.

Episode Title: Carrion Death

31 Days of Tales From the Crypt S:05 E:02

Hello there kiddies! Welcome to the first day of our 31 Days of Tales From the Crypt, I’m your Cryptkeeper Bubbawheat and I’ll be guiding you through the various writers and bloggers coming through here to take a look at a different episode of HBO’s Tales From the Crypt every day throughout October. But as this is the first day, I will be kicking things off with the first episode. This episode was chosen mainly because last year I had gone through every episode in the first four seasons of Tales From the Crypt over at Flights, Tights, and Movie Nights with some very brief thoughts on each episode and its twist. So I wanted to continue on into the fifth season this year, and the first episode in the fifth season is a great one that I didn’t want to take away from someone else to cover so I went with the second episode instead, As Ye Sow.

Episode Title: As Ye Sow

Hello boils and ghouls! It’s time once again for another blogathon here at Channel: Superhero. And even though October is right in the middle of the new fall season, it’s still a perfect excuse to share some love of horror, and what better combination of horror, comics, and television than Tales From the Crypt?

What I’d like to do here at Channel: Superhero is to take an in depth look at a different episode every single day and I need your help!
