"The Man Who Was Death" is the first episode of Tales from the Crypt in the beginning of one of the best television shows ever. Directed and co-written by Walter Hill and with the music score of Ry Cooder, the story has an excellent screenplay and great performance of William 'Bill'Sadler. My vote is eight.
