What a great collection of a tv series from the past!

This series represents the best of the 80's era of funny, scary, and sad for a TV show of that time. All I can say is they are the best if you grew up in that time and looking back at them today, yes they are low budget and quirky but bring back the memories of how things use to be!

Having been terrified as a child by this series' opening, and then having seen episodes as an adult on cable, I came to appreciate it tremendously, despite not seeing all that much of it. Well, totally contrary to the criticisms of the audiences prevalent today which don't possess the mindset to appreciate this kind of horror/oddball sort of content, being, I believe, well into the second season, I AM AWESTRUCK AT THE CONSISTENCY WITH WHICH THE EPISODES OF THIS SERIES CONTAINED VERY HIGHLY ENTERTAINING AND INTERESTING STORIES!! I have watched other '80s-'90s horror anthology series in the form of home video sets before, and let me tell you; they are totally hit or miss by comparison to this one!! I don't know if I should really name the others, and they are classic series which are, overall, worthy of praise, one having an intro in which an unusual family gathers around their living room TV to watch the show (an example of those dearly missed nonsensical, paradoxical concepts in movies and TV, and especially music videos, which were prevalent in the '80s and into the '90s) and the other being hosted by a very punny animatronic corpse, but, in my opinion, Tales From The Darkside blows them both out of the water!!

I can't tell you how surprised and excited I was to see this sitting on the shelf when I walk in Oh, and it was at such a great price I couldn't help but buy.

Loved watching this series when I was a teen. Definitely recommend it for its campiness & scariness & good stories.

A dvd set of a completely horror Anthology show that any horror fan would be please and honored to own.

This production puts the imagination to work. It is ongoing to the point of know return.

The complete series at a great price. A must for fans of horror anthologies.

Great dvd with great stories. Glad to have it to add it to my collection.

This is the true creep show part two. A must see for George Romero fans

It’s great to have this old series on dvd. A blast from the past.

Saw this series when I was a kid and that intro music still scares me to this day hearing it.

This television series was really well written. In the same category as Tales From the Crypt.

Memories of watching these horror films every week.

It's great to finally have a collection of all episodes of this show to watch at convenience. The only real problem is that the packaging for these discs isn't ideal. This happens more than it should with collection sets of full series where the companies want to pack them as cheaply as possible thus not always providing the best protection for the discs themselves. This isn't the worst offender but I do wish the packaging was a bit better. As for the show itself, it's a great nostalgia trip. Picture quality isn't much better than original broadcasts but it's well enough to still enjoy. As with most collections like this there are some good episodes, some OK episodes, and some that aren't really anything special. If you're looking at this collection you most likely have already seen the show and if you haven't then I do recommend scouring online to preview a few episodes before purchase.

Fans of Tales from the Darkside who held out buying the individual sets, your patience has paid off. Now you can have the entire series in one box, but be careful: if I have one complaint about this complete series, it's that the case all of the discs are in is prone to having at least one pop loose when you open it for the first time. They sit loosely in a plastic binder - if you've seen the Beavis and Butt-head set or the Star Trek: Enterprise set, you'll know what I mean. The discs are the same as the original sets, so be prepared for the replaced music on some episodes, but it's a set that eats up less space at a price that won't break the bank.

Do you like horror? Do you like comedy? Do you like it when horror hooks up with comedy for a weekend? If you're into that then you'll be into this! Sure, not all of the stories make sense, but you're sure to enjoy every episode for what they are: vignettes of creep from some of the early 80's best horror minds!

Essentially the same discs that were released as individual seasons, just together (in a cheap plastic case). An update to the fidelity would've been welcome, but honestly, this show will never get the love it deserves. So, even though it's an obvious "let's push this out into a complete series cash grab package" type thing, it's still a great way to own one of the best horror series' ever.

This series from George A. Romero started out as an extension of Creepshow, which is one of the greatest Anthology Movies of all time. I have really enjoyed pouring over each disc, encountering VERY few stinker episodes. One thing that really struck me as funny now is the fear around computers. As the series was made in the 80s, any time computers are brought up, it's hilariously outdated.

Great collection for an awesome price! My sister and I used to set the alarm, and get up in the middle of the night to sneak downstairs and watch this show when we were little! It's so great to see these episodes again and bring back some great 80's memories! If you love a little nostalgia or pine for the good old days, this is a must-see for you!
