    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Despite popular belief, this was never intended as a Tales from the Crypt (1989) movie. The Crypt Keeper segments were added later when it was released to home video, and are clearly of lower picture quality than the movie.
    • Goofs
      When Wesley grabs Paul's shirt, the collar is sticking out. It cuts to another angle and the shirt collar is folded in.
    • Quotes
      • The Crypt Keeper: [in a fake Jamaican accent] Oh, what up my people? Welcome to Jamaica man! This is your old bosom bloody the Cryptkeeper.
      • Hot Girl: Nice hair.
      • The Crypt Keeper: Aint they cool? On me they call these "deadlocks".
      • [Cackles]
      • The Crypt Keeper: Woah! One of the things I love about Jamaica is the eye popping honeys. Of course, I'd prefer them with a little less meat on their bones, or better yet, just bones
      • [Cackles. A woman brings him a drink with a shrunken head in it]
      • The Crypt Keeper: T'anks but that's not what I be meanin when I say I want a little head.
      • [Cackles]
      • The Crypt Keeper: Anyway, mon, I just wrapped my new movie here in Jamaica, where they dance, smoke grass and all the nice girls be in the voodoo trance. What a place to work. You've got mangos, papayas,
      • [Focus in on a woman's breasts]
      • The Crypt Keeper: tourists and they're all so delicous.
      • [Cackles]
      • The Crypt Keeper: So enough of the jabberin'
      • [We focus in on a woman lying on her back. She's slowly taking off her bra]
      • The Crypt Keeper: Our movie awaits... oy! So sit back and relaxe kiddies, and don't worry, be happy! The beast is yet to come! Hahahahahahaha!
    • Crazy credits
      On the R1 DVD, the credits conclude and it fades to black. Suddenly there's a few brief scenes with the Cryptkeeper, as well as additional credits for the Cryptkeeper segments.
    • Alternate versions
      Internationally, this was released as a stand-alone film, but when issued in the USA, it included additional segments before the movie and after the end credits featuring Tales from the Crypt (1989) host The Cryptkeeper.
