The Gargoyle story stuck with me ever since I first saw it when I was about 12 or 13. I wasn't used to having a more emotional story in a horror anthology like that and I genuinely felt bad for him but also kinda traumatised seeing her turn into the (pretty darn cool) creature. And the kids too.
My EXACT thoughts. That story stayed with me more as well, probably b/c that gargoyle monster reminded me of a big Gremlin which that movie traumatized me as a kid lol
I borrowed this from our local video store when I was a kid and it scared the hell out of me for years. More specifically the cat crawling down then up out of a guy's stomach and throat. That's still an effective sequence. As well as when the Mummy sliced open the person's back to shove the flowers in there. That was terrifying for my young mind. It gives me the willies a little but I suspect that's past experience coming back.
I mostly remember William Hickey from the episode of Tales from the Crypt where he switches his body out piece by piece with a young guy so he can get with a girl and ends up going broke and she marries the guy he switched bodies with because he ended up with all of his money. Fun fact, that episode was directed by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"The Switch" Yes! Great episode.. hilarious at the same time, seeing Rick Rossovich (Matt from The Terminator) speaking but with Hickey's voice. "Ohh, Fulton.. wait until she sees thiis!" 😂
That Gargoyle one was heartbreaking, honestly. He didn't do anything wrong, and I felt for the characters. At least in some of the other anthology horror stuff - the character getting their comeuppance is like a terrible person who had it coming...
@@themfooties9897 well actually the real no-no was opening the box , ,when he told the gargoyle nothing happened , , but the MOMENT he opens that box , , ,well , , , 😋
Check out William Hickey's brilliant performance in John Huston's "Prizzi's Honor", a hugely popular 80s flick (Angelica Huston's Oscar, I believe), now pretty much - unfortunately - forgotten: also with Kathleen Turner and Jack Nicholson. There's the emblematic Hickey performance.
I love this movie. I saw it on HBO as a kid and remember being horrified by the gargoyle scene and also enthralled by the effects they used to bring it to life. I think this movie still holds up all things considered.
So I saw this on TV (I think) when I was pretty young. The cat story always stuck with me but I had no idea what movie it was from, until now where I instantly recognized it after seeing the first few snippets that you showed. I loved watching horror movies as a kid and I could never remember what movie this was, until I eventually forgot about it entirely. Thanks for this vid!
Do you remember Friday the 13th the TV show it was kind like tales from the Darkside but had a base cast that ran a antique store that collected cursed possessions
"Lover's Vow" is the best one out of the three, what're you talking about??? 🙂 They clearly left the best for last. Good story, good acting, great twist, great effects.. and uhh, seeing that Gargoyle and it speaking scared the ever loving crap outta me when I first saw it as a 9 year old! __ "I PROMISE!!" Cross your hearrt?!" **Slashes him across the chest** _"WAAGHH!!"_ (flys off)
I remember watching this crazy horror anthology film on Cinemax in 2004-005, and it's pretty impressive! I have it on BLU Ray from the Shout Factory to celebrate it's 30th Anniversary.
Few horror movies tug on your heart strings like the final story of this movie. Such a underrated classic! Should be right up there with the likes of creep show
Right... Agree.. Love how the beginning shows a Story In Itself with the little boy telling these Stories while trying to Distract the Witch Lady from Cooking him.. Another Storyline as well with Movies.
6:01 William Hickey is also the original Puppet Master, Andre Toulan, followed up by an amazing Bane voice originator in Pt. 2 and Guy Rolfe in the following sequels.
I remember my first anthology film was called 'Asylum'. In that film you start the wrap-around story with officials visiting an insane asylum, where the doctor who greets them, the doctor in charge of the asylum, takes them to see several patients, and the reason for each commitment is then done as a flashback. In the end there is a great stinger, which makes the wraparound story as good as some of the actual stories, which is what a wraparound story should be.
That original 70s Tales from the Crypt movie. Good god that had the creepiest vibe man. It still freaks me out when I think about it. The show itself and Demon Knight and Bordello of Blood also great but that first one 😰
Romero himself had said Tales from the Darkside was a continuation of Creepshow, that they didn't have the rights to the name or any of the comics imagery so they came up with the name Tales from the Darkside.
*_The Rae Dawn Chong episode was my favorite part! I just LOVE how the Demon disguised itself as her to keep tabs on the guy who made that promise and he kept that secret for many years and eventually felt that he should let his (now wife and mother of his kids) know what happened on the fateful night 🌃 that he & she met!!_* 😁😳😱😎🏆
This was one of the 90s horror anthology movies that I always would see on cable back in the day along with Tales from the Hood and Body Bags. It will always be pure nostalgia for me as well as the others I mentioned. I wish we'd gotten a sequel/franchise out of this feature or even just more quality horror anthologies from that time. There are some good modern day horror anthologies but very few if any can compare to the good old days of the 80s/90s anthology efforts of the sub genre. But as I've said before, you can apply that same statement to the entire horror genre itself and I think it would be as fitting.
After watching tales from the hood and my little sister being terrified at the little dolls episode I used to crawl over to her door at night open it and make little tapping noises with my two index fingers as if little dolls opened the door and where running in to her room. She started sleeping with my mom and I started doing that at my mom's room and my mom started throwing things at me like the clock books or shoes lol That was probably around 1996 I was 16 my sister about 9 lol
I love anthology horror film's and show's. My favorite show's are tales from the crypt, tales from the darkside, outer limit's, monster's, creepshow, night gallery, master's of horror and the twilight zone. My favorite film's are creepshow, creepshow 2, two evil eye's, tales from the hood, tales from the darkside: the movie, tales from the crypt and vault of horror. I also thought body bag's, cat's eye, ABC's of death, XX, all hallow's eve, holiday's, tales of halloween, southbound and asylum were pretty good or atleast pretty decent. There's still a few show's and film's I haven't seen and want to watch like dr. terror's house of horror's, from beyond the grave, torture garden, nightmare's, nightmare cinema, chillerama, the theatre bizarre, amazing stories, VHS, fear itself, nightmare's and dreamscapes and a few other's.
One of my favorite anthology films right next to the first two Creepshow films and Trick ‘r Treat, I saw this film on AMC many years ago on cable and I absolutely loved it. I bought the Scream Factory release last year and it looks fantastic, it’s a damn shame that a sequel fell through cause it had potential as a film franchise like what happened with Tales From The Crypt, maybe someday someone would resurrect this IP and have talented horror writers to show us unique stories that venture in horror comedy or straight horror.
I thought you were going to go with "Freejack" but you said "Scrooged" which I guess it what most people thought of, but maybe not most people who watch this channel.
I saw this in the theater back in 1990 with my brother. Good times! For some crazy reason, the wraparound story is my favorite of them all, but they are all memorable.
Lovers Vow, I have thought long and hard about in so many ideas and possible history for Carola. I'm sure most of us have figured that Carola is probably centuries old and has been cursed to be a Gargoyle. She obviously is able to break from her stone form after certain time periods and must find someone to willingly agree to keep the secret of seeing her as a gargoyle. Now the questions come, after taking the vow, was it also a requirement for Peyton to fall in love with her??? If they didn't meet and fall in love, would she remain human or would she have to become stone again and wait however long and find a different person to take the vow and fall in love with her 😂😂😂😂 So Many questions, which unfortunately will probably never get put on film. Anyone else have any theories or has wondered about Carola's history??? Please post
I have those same exact questions, basically..and I don't know. It'd be an interesting thing to learn about. I took her final scene as her one and only chance to become human. She took her offspring with her to stone form and idk, I don't see their children ever having a chance to become human. But 🤷🏻♂️.. idk. Interesting thoughts to consider.
"Last we heard from the franchise". Joe Hill (Stephen King's son/ the kid from the intro of Creepshow) actually wrote and released a screenplay book for the scrapped pilot of a series reboot. It comes with 3 original stories. The three stories even got adapted into a short-lived comic book series.
Another intro sequence that never fails to raise the hairs on the back of my neck is the intro to the '85 version of Twilight Zone. No words, just the creepy as hell music and the ghostly visage of Rod Serling at the end before the iconic theme from the original gets a little update to round things off just right.
I used to hate this movie as a kid but as a kid bc of all the gore, bc I grew up as a kid with the original series but looking back, it's actually very good
I’m sorry, not trying to incorrect you, but you got the title wrong. It’s called CreepShow 3. By the way, I’m just kidding, but I like to call this movie CreepShow 3
The Gargoyle story stuck with me ever since I first saw it when I was about 12 or 13. I wasn't used to having a more emotional story in a horror anthology like that and I genuinely felt bad for him but also kinda traumatised seeing her turn into the (pretty darn cool) creature. And the kids too.
My EXACT thoughts. That story stayed with me more as well, probably b/c that gargoyle monster reminded me of a big Gremlin which that movie traumatized me as a kid lol
It’s a good story but I think it’s based on an earlier story in the 1964 Japanese film Kwaidan
Yeah, that one stuck with me the most as well....
Loved this movie as a kid. Just rewatched it a few days ago and it’s still just as good.
Me also , back in 1990 that is , , , 👽👍

I agree...i made a music video using clips from the gargoyle part...ateange
Its an updated Yuki Onna, watch Kwaidan.
Right
He did do something wrong, it told him never to tell anyone, and he decided to do it anyway. Although he told the gargoyle itself it still counts.
@@themfooties9897 well actually the real no-no was opening the box , ,when he told the gargoyle nothing happened , , but the MOMENT he opens that box , , ,well , , , 😋
I never got the hate for anthology films.. To this day they are more often fun than than not
Weirdly, I randomly found the off-tv VHS recording of this at my parents place a few weeks ago! Along with Evil Dead 2 and Society.
William Hickey was in many films, tv shows, the ones you mentioned, Tales from the Crypt, Puppet Master
Check out William Hickey's brilliant performance in John Huston's "Prizzi's Honor", a hugely popular 80s flick (Angelica Huston's Oscar, I believe), now pretty much - unfortunately - forgotten: also with Kathleen Turner and Jack Nicholson. There's the emblematic Hickey performance.
AWESOME anthology. First saw this in 1993 on Sky Movies.
I love this movie. I saw it on HBO as a kid and remember being horrified by the gargoyle scene and also enthralled by the effects they used to bring it to life. I think this movie still holds up all things considered.
Tales from the Darkside the Movie you must love the 90s 🥰👍 what a great time for Movies
The third segment with Rae Dawn Chong is the only memorable one imo. Based on a Japanese folktale "The Snow Woman" or Yuki-Onna.
The gargoyle really was equal parts horrifying and tragic for me. Still watch this picture each year.
I never saw the movie Thinner, but I have the book. That's a wild read.
While the Yuki-onna sequence was maybe not as good as the other two stories, it does deserve to be recognized as a variation on the Japanese legend.
The Gargoyles is my FAVORITE story in the anthology
So I saw this on TV (I think) when I was pretty young. The cat story always stuck with me but I had no idea what movie it was from, until now where I instantly recognized it after seeing the first few snippets that you showed.

the lost clip at the end
God, I saw the thumbnail and immediately "Da-Da" came to my mind...
The theme to Tales from the Darkside......My God, that theme.
Do you remember Friday the 13th the TV show it was kind like tales from the Darkside but had a base cast that ran a antique store that collected cursed possessions

Gotta love how the last one is an americanized take on Japanese folklore that is actually pretty good.
Interesting note. The story of the gargoyle and the artist is very similar to the story of the Minogichi and the Yuki-onna in Japanese folklore.
You nailed this
Love this movie, love most horror anthology. I've probably watched the creepshow movies more times than I could count hahaha
Loved this flick
I just made a music video using clips from the gargoyle part....wtf?
Dont lie to me! You guys only come here to see the gargoyle part!
There's a creepshow TV series????
👍
It was pretty good, but out of the 3 stories the Gargoyle one was the best.
I remember watching this crazy horror anthology film on Cinemax in 2004-005, and it's pretty impressive! I have it on BLU Ray from the Shout Factory to celebrate it's 30th Anniversary.
Few horror movies tug on your heart strings like the final story of this movie.
Such a underrated classic! Should be right up there with the likes of creep show
In fact, this movie was dubbed "The unofficial Creepshow 3"
I remember this movie well, but holy shit it came out in 1990? I thought it was like 10 years older than that. I mean, look at that kid's f'n haircut!
Love this film and the intro was creepy 👻
I loved this as a kid, the Rae Dawn Chong story has stuck with me to this day.
@@Socialmediaruinedsocietyy that surprised me too, I always thought that was the best story in the movie.
Right.... Same Thoughts.
Actually this is,it's a very good anthology, at least I liked it. I remember it use to come on HBO all the time.
Right... Agree.. Love how the beginning shows a Story In Itself with the little boy telling these Stories while trying to Distract the Witch Lady from Cooking him.. Another Storyline as well with Movies.

This was the true Creepshow 3.
You get it!
Make-up legend Tom Savini has confirmed this.

Great cast in Asylum and also written by Psycho writer Robert Bloch.
That original 70s Tales from the Crypt movie. Good god that had the creepiest vibe man. It still freaks me out when I think about it. The show itself and Demon Knight and Bordello of Blood also great but that first one 😰
The Real Creepshow 3 as Tom Savini would put it. I enjoyed this movie when I was a kid and still do.
Romero himself had said Tales from the Darkside was a continuation of Creepshow, that they didn't have the rights to the name or any of the comics imagery so they came up with the name Tales from the Darkside.
I'm glad I'm not the only one the beginning credits creeped out. Always made me feel off as a kid.
Again if they can bring back creepshow than why not tales from the darkside and tales from the crypt as well as monsters? Just saying 😌
M. Night Shymalan was set to produce a Tales from the crypt reboot a few years ago but it fell through unfortunately.
I literally can watch this every time it's on, classic
Trilogy of Terror is another great classic. I don't think it was a TV show, but it was three different stories
I love tales from the Dark side,they would play it alot on channel 11 WPIX all the time back in the 90s
NY right? Pittsburgh is WPXI 11🤣
I love anthology movies!! Treat r’ Treat is my personal favorite but I love most of them!
As kid the twist at the end of the gargoyle story fucked me up!
*_The Rae Dawn Chong episode was my favorite part! I just LOVE how the Demon disguised itself as her to keep tabs on the guy who made that promise and he kept that secret for many years and eventually felt that he should let his (now wife and mother of his kids) know what happened on the fateful night 🌃 that he & she met!!_* 😁😳😱😎🏆
Was kinda sad though.
Right... My favorite story from this Movie.. Rae Dawn Chong was a great Actress back in the Days...... Interesting Storyline.

The first anthology horror film was Dead Of Night, released in 1944.
Watched this around 92/93 on sky satellite in the UK. Absolutely cool as hell.
93 it premiered on Sky Movies I remember it well as my dad had just got cable and this was a premier. Great film.
ITV used to show it quite regularly late at night too.
My friend and I would watch this late at night every Halloween when we were kids.

The tv show intro would creep me out as a kid
awesome and funny
I just watched Tales From The Uncanny (2020), I highly recommend this Horror anthology documentary to everyone! Thanks Joblo for the info ❤
I love this movie!
the new york dolls are one of my favorite bands of all-time. i wish there were more horror movies like these being made.

Yes, Scream Factory is awesome, but they region lock all their releases! Gotta say, not feeling the love over here in Europe :(
If you love the theme song and also horror core rap check out the $uicideboy$ song Tulane.
I think I suggested that you do this film in the comment section of one of your last videos. awesome.
When I die I want Christian Shepherd to greet me and say those words.
Awesome movie!
Dr Terror's House of Horrors is awesome
She’s the nanny, she’s the nanny
Good movie, and I loved the t.v. show
This was one of my favorite movies growing up.
