Tales from the Darkside: The Movie
A 3,000-year-old mummy, a fatal moggy and a terrible gargoyle take their brutish turns in a taut, taut and game of trinity of intimidation tales strained from the work of authors Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Stephen Ruler, adapted by George Romero and Michael McDowell, the Beetle Juice co-writer. High on creepy atmosphere, low on dry exposition, this well-crafted motion picture version of its duff namesake TV series is an agreeably ambitious and solidly striking outing. Of out for the duration of Christian Slater in shorts, Debbie Harry as a housewife from hell and, especially, the jolting Cat from Inferno adventure!
