TALES FROM THE CRYPT

This volume of audio plays was originally created for the Sci-Fi Channel's Web site. For one thing, audio is far more potent than video for this spook fest. For another, the producers of this audio have cheerfully, excessively embraced bad taste. Expect barely serviceable direction, uneven acting, low humor, and sophomoric writing marinated in loud, viscous gruesomeness. The exercise amply succeeds in sounding like a cartoon. Fans of this sort of fare, and they are both rabid and legion, should love this. Y.R. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB / MAR 03]
