Monsters is a syndicated horror anthology series which ran during the 1990s on the scifi Channel from 1988 to 1991 and also re ran. At the time of 2011, Monsters airs on NBC Universal cable channel Chiller in weekday marathons that are sporadic.At a related vein to Tales from the Darkside,'' Monsters shared the same manufacturer, and in a number of ways succeeded the series. It differed in some respects. This series was strictly terror, while Tales dabbled in stories of fantasy and science fiction. As the name implies, each episode of Monsters comprised another monster which the story concerned, by the animatronic puppet of a children's television program into weapon-wielding lab rats.Comparable to Tales, but the stories contained some twist by which a personality's conceit or greed could do him often with results and in chords were seldom very straightforward action plots. Increasing it is an expression of humor lost on terror productions which may possibly lighten the viewer's mood however in most cases added into the production's eeriness.
