First of all, you can't compare this show to Tales From the Crypt, simply because that was shown on paid cable tv, and Monsters was on regular tv. Obviously you can show and do much more on a cable show. I used to watch Monsters right after Tales From the Darkside. Both shows were awesome to an 80's kid who enjoyed campy horror shows. I also grew up watching Svengoolie, and this fits right in. If you're looking for blood and guts, this isn't for you. But if you enjoy practical effects and makeup, then give it a shot!. I even re-watched them several years ago, and it still held up after all that time.
