If you have Amazon Prime, Lore has an excellent episode devoted to the history lobotomies. It's incredibly chilling.

Currently, Creepshow on r/ShudderTV. It definitely has the vibe and visual aesthetic of the first film. It's macabre fun in a Tales From The Crypt vein. I definitely second the recommendation for Tales From The Darkside. For dark horror light on humor it gets to be a bit more difficult. Shudder have a few foreign genre programs that aren't bad. They had more, but right now the inventory shifted a little (as streaming services are prone to do). Tales had a subsequent companion series from its creators called Monsters that tends to be a lot of fun.

Shudder also has exclusive rights to the brief Neil Gaiman anthology series Likely Stories, which goes back-and-forth from horror to dark fantasy.

Then there's Amazon's anthology series Lore. I haven't yet checked it out, but it appears to be treading similar horor-anthology grounds. Same goes for The Nightmare Worlds of H. G. Wells

More omnibus horror worth tracking down: there are about three or so programs called Thriller/Thrillers out there and they're all good. Two of them are British in origin. One ran for 6 series' (seasons) and the other for a handful of episodes. Sometimes they can be found for free on one of the Filmwise or Shout Factory TV apps. Amazon Prime video is definitely the go-to place for a lot of horror anthology shows.

Another go-to is Tales of The Unexpected. Much of the series' stories are Roald Dahl adaptations.

There's the macabre fun of Chillers, which is similar to Tales of the Unexpected but sources its stories from a lot of Patricia Highsmith's short stories. Like Tales of the Unexpected, a lot of familiar faces pop up over the course of its two series.

Not to be confused with the Highsmith adaptations, a shorter, darker, equally decent British horror anthology series named Chiller is recommended. Sometimes you can find it for freeview on legal apps like Popcorn Flix (not to be confused with pirate tv/movie hub Popcorn Time). It is available commercial-free via Prime (Prime absolutely annihilates Netflix when it comes to its catalog of genre-based television and films, which is why there are more Prime links here than Netflix).

Also worth checking out is the Hammer House of Horror anthology series. England really cornered the market on horror television, especially horror anthology series. Most of the the programs feature a solid pedigree of name talent in front of and behind the camera. The downside is that series in the U. K. have shorter episode orders and usually tend to have brief runs (often by design).

Other series I recommend: Nigel Kneale's Beasts.

an old HBO anthology series called The Hitchhiker, and an even briefer, infinitely more difficult to track down, aired-once-and-was-never-shown-again HBO anthology series from the very early 1990s called The Edge, which was basically The Hitchhiker without the Hitchhiker wrap-arounds. Celebrity cast, dark, horror/dark fantasy anthology series that only ran for a few episodes. HBO had a shorter, enjoyable E. C. Comics follow-up to Tales From The Crypt that aired around 1996ish/1997ish called Perversions of Science that skewed as much into horror as it did science fiction. It was a lot of fun.

There's more, but I think I've provided a few suggestions worth pursuing.
