This show was so good, it should have been TFDS II, but it does feature many of same concepts that the show had, only with more comedic feelings and also irrationality added in. Also their would occasionlly be an episode, that would be very gruesome.moreless

"Great"
The show starts quite the same as Tales, with a mundane situation going into something usually terrifying, or not of the rational mind. But, it also kinda of dozed off at times into comedic characters, and also silly characters, that would do the person in just like on Tales, sometimes with unfriendly consequences. The episodes differed in terms of horror, some were basically episodes that focused on many aspects of the beyond, like zombies, and also on a few occasions, aliens. The show was not actually quite as gruesome as Tales in my opinion, but it did feature grotesque monsters, ranging from the primitive to downright insane. This included, dragons, lizards, demons, ghosts, insects, out of control lab-rats, creepy aliens, mutants, disfigured people,and also zombies, and yes vampires. So, it wasn't the greatest horror anthology series, but did keep much of the same concepts, that lead it previous show to become a hit, but also giving people a sense of the fact, that their are some people who don't always live in our world, but rather in another one, and it's pretty scary and effective throughout most of the show. The show episodes though are quite grainy and chessy, and at times it's even hard to see the monsters very well, but the lack of CGI, and advanced special effects from that period, didn't really slow it down that much, and the point and the undertone that's revealed in the episode, somewhat makes up for that. Overall, an excellent series, that doesn't have the best special effects because of the time that it came out, and budget constraints, but still manages to show the other side of life, that sometimes we miss, just like it's previous show.moreless
