Choosing A Modern ‘Tales From The Crypt’ Cast: Dig That Cat… He’s Real Gone

Welcome back to another installment of Choosing A Modern Tales From The Crypt Cast! Normally, I pick a random episode and go from there, but this time, I started thinking about one of my all time favorite episodes, Dig That Cat… He’s Real Gone, and I thought it would be perfect for today! Dig That Cat follows Ulric, a homeless man who’s given a chance at fame and fortune after a mad doctor gives him a cat’s nine lives. As always, I made my choices based on age, looks, and how I picture their overall performances. I hope you enjoy and let me know who you’d cast! (REMINDER: this is just hypothetical fun! I respect everyone mentioned and this series isn’t meant to tear anyone down or be disrespectful!!)
