Editorial Review:
Greetings, fiends! The last time you saw the Crypt Keeper...wait, this is the last time. So turn out the frights, the party's over. They say all ghoul things must end. But first let the ghoul times roll one gleeful last time with these 13 terrorific tales based on those classic moldy-but-goodie horror comics from back when. Among the die-lights: Natasha Richardson is a lawyer planning a Fatal Caper, Ewan McGregor gets down and zombie for a Cold War and Daniel Craig finds out how the sneaky, freaky ad biz really works in Smoke Wrings. Well, time's up. Past our deadtime. Never say die, kiddies (although we just did). It's the final season!
Tales from the Crypt: The Complete Seventh Season Reviews:
The Crypt Keeper goes English 
2009-09-19 - Okay, I assume that most everybody who is looking up this product on amazon is at least somewhat familiar with the late, great HBO show. So, I will limit my comments to discussing the seventh season as compared to the full run of the program.
The obvious difference is that the episodes were filmed in Britain using mostly English actors. I like this change. There is something just a little more gothic about an English setting, and the actors have that wry British humor in the way they play the campy roles.
It's also fun to see familiar faces from oh so serious BBC / Masterpiece Theatre dramas cutting up and having a blast with over the top horror roles. There's Imelda Staunton and Greg Wise from Sense & Sensibility, Bob Hoskins (Pride & Prejudice's Mr. COllins, and Ewan MacGregor. The first time I saw James Wilby, known for playing roles like Dicken's Sydney Carton, running around in his underwear using words that would make Charles Dicken's faint, I cracked up.
This is a real hoot for Masterpiece Theatre and Mobil Mystery fans.
Best HBO series ever! 
2009-05-24 - Waited a long time for Tales to come out on DVD! Well worth the wait! I have seasons 1-6 also, and I have to say this season 7 is my least favourite. It's still good, but I don't like the whole English setting. I love the comedic horror and the ever brilliant story lines!! Best show ever made!!
Tales from the Crypt.Complete Seventh Season
2009-04-29 - I didn`t like everything on it. But I thought it was worth having just for the few episodes that I did like which I thought were terrific like`Horror in the night` which reminded me a lot of the movie `1408`. Another was `Report from the Grave`. Plus `The Kidnapper`, which was quirky. I actually bought it for those three.
Thank you Warner! 
2008-09-05 - Yes, thank you Warner. There was French subtitles on season 1,2,3,4,5 and no more on season 6 and 7 to complete my collection... thank you...
Yay for TFTC! ..british?
2008-02-25 - I really love the Tales from the Crypt! HUGE FAN! That's why I was disappointed to find all the last tales in London or wherever. I mean, I love the accent and all, but that was too much! Plus, TFTC is American based.. why did they film the last season on England?
Still loved most of the tales though.. and the last episode was kinda unexpected/funny.
