Man, why does Mary Lambert hate cats so much?
The last episode of season 1, this starts with the Crypt Keeper saying, "Before I get to tonight's terror tale...I'd like to introduce you to my pet, Peeves. He has a terror tale of his own. Tonight's skin-pimpling story is about a couple with their own pet peeves. I call this chunk of chilling charnel chatter "Collection Completed.""
Based on the story in The Vault of Horror #25, written by Bill Gaines and Al Feldstein with art by Graham Ingels, this is not the story to check out if you love animals.
Jonas (M. Emmet Walsh) is retiring after 47 years of working at a tool company. He didn't want to be done, but that's the way it went. He's supposed to be relaxing, but he soon learns that his wife Anita (Audra Lindley) has kept from being lonely all these years by having animals all over the house.
She starts treating him like one of them, giving him his pills in food and feeding him cat food. She even names a dog after him, which is the point he goes insane and starts killing all of her animals and stuffing them. Yet when he tries to kill her cat Mewmew, she uses the gold hammer Jonas was given for his retirement to take care of him. And then she stuff him.
This episode was written by A. Whitney Brown, who some of you may remember from Saturday Night Live.
With that, we end the first season of this show. Anyone interested in season 2?
