Review 4K Movie

Attention, attention, attention! We are about to begin our 'Crypt Show'. Tonight you'll see a dead man demanding his birthday cake; a man growing weed; two drowned lovers punishing their killer; a bloodthirsty sharp-toothed monkey; flesh-eating cockroaches; and for dessert, a boy killing his father with a voodoo doll. Hurry up and see!

It's been so many years, and the movie is not at all outdated. True, there is a slight caveat. Some episodes could have been excluded, leaving the third and the fourth and still uniting them.

But that's why it's an anthology, so you'll like some things and some things you won't.

As I said above, my favorite episodes are the third and fourth.

'The Tide' is the story of a cheating husband burying his wife along with her lover in a surf strip, and then the drowned men coming after him.

I think this part encapsulated the tension and suspense of the whole movie.

And the makeup on the drowned men is just gorgeous. Since George Romero was in charge of the production, it's logical to assume that Gregory Nicotero - a real master of disfiguring people - was in charge of the makeup here.

'The Box' is the fourth story about a scary toothy ape brought back by some polar expedition, locked in a box for years, and then accidentally released to attack again.

As a result, we have a rather entertaining 80's thrash-horror movie, which is easy enough to swallow and watch without much tension. Some things you can laugh at, some things you can be afraid of, and some things (like the cockroach episode) you can rewind with a clear conscience.
