Some of my favorite anthology film-wise include Cat's Eye, Nightmares, Campfire Tales (underated IMO), and def. Tales From the Hood.
But my favorite tale from any of them has to be The Raft from Creepshow 2, followed by KKK Comeuppance from Tales From the Hood.

The orignal "Tales from the Crypt", especially the killer Santa story and that really sad one with Peter Cushing.

Favorite anthology : Black Sabbath Story : A Drop of Water
Tales From the Crypt Story : Blind Alleys
After that would be a toss up between other Amicus anthologies : From Beyond the Grave, House that Dripped Blood, Asylum, Dr. Terror's House of Horror's and The Monster club

It was "Thanks for the ride lady." Umm spoiler alert....
Got a kick when the hitcher shows the lady a sign saying "you killed me".

I love anthologies, one of my fav horror subgenres...though it's not really a subgenre:hmmm: well whatever it is I like it.
All of the Creepshow tales hold a special place in my heart but probably The Raft and The Crate stand out the most...

Since this is in my bathroom I guess I'll just go with the crate.
The first story in From Beyond the Grave is sweet too, really creepy.
I had heard good things about Scream of a Winter's Night but I ended up being disappointed by that one.
The award for most violent/disturbing anthology I've seen def goes to The Burning Moon, catch the German Unedited version if you can...that is one messed up movie.

I liked the last segment in that movie, with the old house and the repeating ghosts.

Vault of Horror was also decent, but try to find it in it's fully uncut format. I have Fox's lousy PG version that freeze-frames some of the gorier moments.

definitely Creepshow! Everything about that movie was great IMO!
...and I thought Tales From The Hood was very underrated. Cool flick as well.

For me it'll be Tales from the Hood.
I haven't seen any of the Creepshows thought they looked kind of bleh...but from what you guys are saying, I should check it out.
Campfire Tales.....ah yes, the hook, people can lick too!....RV honeymoons....awesome stuff.
people can lick too, that shit was creepy

Dude, that was the first horror movie I saw (like age 6) and it scared the hell out of me. Definitely a great horror movie. Other than that, who can go wrong with Tales From the Hood and Creepshow?

First 2 Creepshow "movies" are my favorites (3rd was a disppointment but mildly enjoyable), followed by a selected few from Twilight zone, Tales from the Crypt, and Tales from the Darkside...
Which reminds me, so happy Tales from the Darkside is hitting dvd in Feb. This thread reminded me to pre-order it. :bigthumbup:
Edit: Oh, I also enjoyed a few episodes from "Friday the 13th the series", poor represented show that was...
