Twisted Tales - Comes to TV

Twisted Tales, a horror anthology comic from the early to late 80's is going to be turned into a half hour tv series. Here's what Variety has to say about this bit of news:

"Todd McFarlane", the creator of 'Spawn' has partnered with AngryFilms ('LXG', 'From Hell') to develop a half-hour anthology show for the network, a Fox TV Studios' alternative division. 'Twisted' takes its title from a comic book series to which McFarlane owns the rights too.

Each episode will focus on tales of horror, fantasy or sci-fi. McFarlane will serve as a Rod Serling-like host, by introducing each episode."

I used to read these comics when I was younger (I even own the one pictured above) and the stories were pretty good, so it will be cool to see how the stories of Twisted Tales will translate to the small screen. If McFarlane has anything to say about it - they will be pretty twisted indeed.
