The lead singer, Danny absolutely hates her and ends up seeing a mysterious tattoo artist at the suggestion of one of his groupies. On a Deadman’s ChestĪ volatile metal band gets their own Yoko Ono in the form of Tia Carrere. And it didn’t help that you never really care about McDermott as a character so it feels a bit hollow in the end. The twist is ok, but it felt like it had been done. They just injected him with something to make him feel a little sick for a while, not only that but they had found the solution to their problem and were ready to celebrate. The woman comes in and tells him that it was all a prank, they hadn’t injected him with the drug. The Twist: His hallucinations keep getting worse and he thinks he goes to the female doctor’s house where he hears a message that implies that they injected him with the wrong drug on purpose so he goes to enact his bloody revenge and drags the body of the doctor to the police station. He starts hallucinating, but it feels way too over the top to be scary, but it’s also not funny. I honestly wasn’t all that fond of this episode, McDermott plays a real creep, but one that I’m not exactly rooting for or against.

After announcing their latest breakthrough on a drug or enzyme or whatever that they have yet to figure out how to make it stop once it’s finished with the disease, his team accidentally injects him with the serum instead of his insulin, leaving him with a few hours before he dies. He also has a very rape-y relationship with his female doctor and can’t inject his own insulin. The ending really just fell a little flat for me.ĭylan McDermott plays an asshole pharmaceutical executive who has a tendency to announce his team’s breakthroughs before they actually break through. It was all a little silly, and the death makeups weren’t the best this time around. Several of his previous victims in various states of decay come after him for one last chance at love. But he wasn’t doing it for his own reasons, he was doing it on the insistence of the women who still love Williams even after death. The Twist: It turns out the one sending those notes was the gravedigger, who I didn’t realize until looking it up but was played by Sugar Ray Leonard.
It was also hilarious when you find out how much of a sexual appetite his final victim has.
This was also directed by Tom Hanks and the one choice that really bugged me was the odd way in a couple of the killing moments where it looped a few times like a DVD skipping. He goes on a killing spree going after anyone who he thinks might know what he’s doing, including his partner, the dating service guy played by Tom Hanks, and his current girl’s butler. He starts getting ominous notes from someone who knows what he’s doing and threatens to expose him. Unfortunately the gig is up, but he can’t let it go just yet and goes for one more try with Frances Sternhagen who I knew best as Cliff’s mother from Cheers. He marries them, kills them, and keeps their money. Treat Williams plays a black widower who preys on lonely, elderly, rich women.
There were several episodes this season that felt like they were period pieces, though they often also had a sense of taking place in modern day. While season 4 had a few more weak spots than the earlier seasons especially during the first half of the season, it still had quite a few high points as it made its way through to the last half of the season. I hope you have enjoyed my romp through the terrorvision episodes and if you would like me to get to the last three seasons before next Halloween be sure to let me know in the comments. Ok, technically the day after Halloween, but you get the point. Hello boils and ghouls, it’s Halloween and I’ve come to the end of my current re-watch of Tales From the Crypt with season 4.
