WARNING: SPOILERS. HAPPENING. BELOW. DON'T READ IT IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW.

I've always thought Tales From The Crypt was an excellent show... the cryptkeeper is just adorable.

The first mention of TFTC was on this thread about Adam Ant: http://www.sectual.com/thread-2477.html

I remember seeing his episode "Maniac At Large" when I was 12 or 13, and I just thought Adam Ant was the bee's knees!

Lastnight I was reviewing the made for TV movie "Stalking Laura" when I learned that Richard Thomas (John-Boy Walton) was also in an episode of TFTC!!!

Richard Thomas plays a decidedly excellent psycho, and I guess it's safe to say I'm on a kick to stalk down his most freaky roles! So this TFTC review thread will start off with an episode called "Mute Witness To Murder" wherein apparently Richard plays a madman. 



Upon reading the comments, I can see that a lot of people apparently thought the plot was stupid. I don't really foresee that being an issue, but I guess it's possible... TFTC can be a bit quirky sometimes, but I've never found it unenjoyable.

2:17 awww, this lady is very pretty. Things are about to go tragically wrong though. LOL =\

2:50 OMG husband abuse :( It'd be so terrible to be an abused husband and have to listen to your wife screeching obscenities at you.

3:55 dude OMG LMAO I just now noticed that's Richard!

I'm gonna have to rewatch this, I was multi-tasking.

3:20 BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA. That was fucking awesome.

3:55 well she pushed him too far, I mean she had it coming. It's just too bad there were any witnesses at all... he deserved to get away with that!!!

4:46 this lady must really be sensitive... I mean what she saw wasn't even that bad.

5:47 BHAHAHAHAHAHAHOHOHOHOHOHOHOOOOOOO SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I meeeean... wow. Yeah his voice is like... creepy. When it's painted in this light. Which is just so hot.

6:00 I mean that WOULD BE a fucking nightmare, LMAO!!! Oh my God dude. LMFAOOO!!!

6:03 what a fucking hottie though, this Richard guy is fine as hell.

6:15 LMFAO, I don't even know what to say about this... it's just... so good.

6:48 sigh... OMG.

8:04 agh my God, LOL, this is horrible.

8:47 that padded room looks really comfortable.

9:03 oh he's gonna take care of her alright.

9:50 there's a camera right there, so.

10:10 yeah really, she just needs to get over it... guy's wife was a fucking bitch.

If there's anything "stupid" about this plot, it's that it even bothered the lady that much, LOL!

10:38 how exciting!!!

10:45 you know what I think would have made a great plot?? He gets his own wife committed. That would have been great.

11:04 oh that's fucking disappointing! *sadface*

11:13 "to a minimum" roflroflmao.

15:35 I totally believe him.

17:17 oh great so now he's just gonna kill this guy or have him committed too.

17:53 agh, my God, he's SOOOOO creepy... it's fucking perfect. I can't believe how good he is at these characters. He's SO good.

18:00 THAT'S stupid though... the fucking camera can ABSOLUTELY see what is happening right now. What kind of bullshit is this?? By far the weakest, dumbest part of the plot.

18:14 whoa this guy is an evil prick!!! 

19:30 "So quiet" hell yeah this is the perfect woman for him!!! I'd be taking that bitch home!!! What's he thinking?!

21:55 ah I see her approach now, that's pretty smart.

So hot though... I wish Richard's entire career would have been nothing but psycho characters.
