Monsters is a syndicated horror anthology series which originally ran from 1988 to 1991 and reran on the Sci-Fi Channel during the 1990s. Similarly to Tales from the Darkside, Monsters shared the same producer, and in some ways succeeded the show. It differed in some respects nonetheless. While Tales sometimes dabbled in stories of science fiction and fantasy, this series was more strictly horror. As the name implies, each episode features a different monster, from the animatronic puppet of a fictional children's television program to mutated, weapon-wielding lab rats.
A half-hour anthology that promises one creature per episode and delivers on the label with practical-effects glee. The dread here is bite-sized and unpredictable, veering from genuinely eerie to gleefully campy within a single installment. What lingers is the format's cruelty: no comfort, no recurring faces, just something new waiting behind every closing door.
