Community Reviews

Tales From the Crypt is a long unavailable horror anthology that finally lands for purchase in SD, with the big draw being easy access to the full series and its unrated HBO-era content. The price works out cheaply per season, and the old-school presentation still carries nostalgic charm, with clean picture and audio on some screens. The main drawback is the resolution, which is widely described as true SD or 480p, sometimes with a 60 fps soap opera effect and long episode intros. It feels like a bargain for fans who can live with the format.

  • The purchase can feel nostalgic for viewers who do not mind 480p resolution and 4:3 pillarboxing.

  • The deal can work well for fans who want to own the complete series after years of unavailability.

  • The Fandango website discount code HOMEJULY26 can stack on top of the site's typical 10% off.

  • The SD presentation can still look clean and watchable on a large 70-inch TV.

  • The SD 480p presentation can look bad enough to make some viewers regret buying the set.

  • The video quality can look like poor DVD quality on AMC+ when viewed on Roku.

  • The series can show a soap opera effect because it may run at 60 fps instead of the original 24 fps.

  • The Fandango version may not include the AMC+ restoration and unrated footage described for the Shudder/AMC+ release.

Not even close, Tubi you have to mute all the ads. Congratulations to the people who are actually purchasing this! Looks decent on Tubi. If it was HD, I would insta-purchase. Still thinking about it at SD, but I wish it was on Apple so at least you would have a possibility of getting a free upgrade.

I just got it and it looks pretty good for being SD.

Plenty. I can play a movie on but don't have to watch it. Movies can be great on the background while doing chores.

Unfortunately on Fandango free upgrades are rare. And Ive almost never had a free TV upgrade.
Only two out of the hundreds we have were ever upgraded (HDX to 4K). Not sure how or why they were chosen. But they were not SD like these.

A Clockwork Orange
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Yea maybe you want to spend $20 on the crapshoot they will some day. But SD is absolutely horrible on the viewing. I have a couple SD tv series and I regret buying them. Ten minutes in and I turn it off.

Google says "Due to the lack of an official studio restoration, fans and archivists have taken preservation into their own hands. The 1080p and 4K AI-upscaled fan edits that circulate online offer a massive upgrade to the picture quality over the standard-definition DVD transfers"
yup... much like old cartoons (found some 4K AI scales of Courage a while back, man they look good!).
if you want HD upgrades, just go grab a torrent and enjoy.

the big studios would probably do a shit job and make changes along the way anyway...

the most annoying thing about this show is the fact that intros for each episode are about 3 minutes long.....
