Show Notes
Gore-dan and HELL-ex take a dive into the musty vaults of the early '90s to unearth the SLASHinating facts behind "Tales From the Crypt," arguably the scariest thing to come out of Joel Silver's career, except for all the things that haven't been unsealed! [incredibly irritating high-pitched laugh] But yes, that's right BOILs and GHOULS, they're looking into the HBO phenomenon that turned a desiccated corpse with a Borscht Belt sensibility into a household name -- and no, we're not talking about Don Rickles!
Your pals of putrescence dive into the history of EC Comics, the trailblazing comics label that provided the source material, the weird German guy (not that one) who killed them off, and the wave of nostalgia that carried four of Hollywood's biggest power players in the '80s and '90s to create a well-funded, creatively free long-running project that everyone was excited to be a part of!
They'll tackle the positively insane guest list cast, the weird spin-offs, how much Dennis Miller sucks, and other spooooooooky things like budgets and Nielsen ratings! It's Boo MuLCH InfoSLAYtion: Spooky month!
