The guy on the bike looked soooo phoney.

I always find it hard to pick one favorite. It would have to be either Horror in the Heights or The Zombie.

'The Vampire',which was both scary and funny,just like the first film,which this is a semi-sequel to.

Always found it hard having to choose just one as the best, but in the end I settled on "The Ripper".

The Ripper is my favorite episode.

The Ripper most resembles the plot and shooting style of The Night Stalker and The Night Strangler. Great episode.

A tie between Firefall and Horror in the Heights, the two most atmospheric, original, and well written episodes.

As for Chopper...well it was fun but kind of tasteless (a decapitated motorcycle ghost? Really?) and I actually found Kolchak to be a bit too much of a smart a$$ in that one. And while I'm not very critical of dated effects (most of my favorite movies have dated effects) that headless rider looked extremely goofy. Maybe even goofier than the lizard in the last episode. It's probably one of the worst episodes, overall.
