Monsters (TV Series)

A horror anthology show in a similar vein to Tales from the Darkside, it shared the same producer, Richard Rubenstein, and in some ways succeeded the show (which had ended the same year in which Monsters began). It differed in some respects nonetheless. While Tales often dabbled in stories of science fiction and fantasy, this series was more strictly horror. As the name implies, each episode of Monsters featured a different monster which the story concerned, from the animatronic puppet of a fictional children's television program to mutated, weapon-wielding lab rats.
