What it’s about. The foul-mouthed, wheelchair-bound Mr. Rush introduces three adventure tales inspired by the EC Comics of the 1950s: "Showdown," "King of the Road," and "Yellow." This star-studded telefilm was an attempt to launch a second anthology series in the mold of "Tales from the Crypt." When the film failed to generate sufficient interest, the three tales were re-edited and shown as "Crypt" episodes.
Who’s in it. Two-Fisted Tales stars Brad Pitt as Billy (segment "King of the Road"), William Sadler as Mr. Rush (Presenter), David Morse as Tom McMurdo (segment "Showdown") and Kirk Douglas as General Calthrop, among others.
