Continuing the EC theme, this week I recommend the 1972 Amicus anthology film, Tales From the Crypt starring Peter Cushing. Each of these stories is taken from an EC comic, although not all are actually from Tales from the Crypt: two were originally Tales from the Crypt, one Vault of Horror, and two Haunt of Fear.
I always loved the Amicus anthology films, no one did it better. Cushing's story "Poetic Justice" is my favorite from "Tales From The Crypt". It's a heart breaking performance from Peter, especially when you think that he lost his wife in real life.
