Tales From The Crypt

TV Series: Season 01; Episode #04: "Only Sin Deep"

a wicked hooker (played by Lea Thompson) sells her beauty to a pawn shop in exchange for cash that will help her enter the social high life. A month afterwards, her facial tissues begin to age at an alarming rate, and she ends up looking positively ancient, even though nothing but her face ages. A great story and top-notch makeup effects. Highly recommended.

Tales From The Crypt

TV Series: Season 04; Episode #14: "Curiosity Killed"

two elderly couples go on a mysterious trip by van into a swamp, where they discover the fountain of youth in the roots of an old tree. The African-American couple becomes younger, and so does the white husband, who refuses to give any to his nagging, elderly wife. Angry, she poisons the root mixture, and her husband and the other couple age quickly to their deaths.
The wife takes the remainder of the potion, and morphs very convincingly into a young woman. She is happy, until their violent pet dog eats her and regresses into a puppy. Great morph from old to young, and fantastic old age makeup for the wife make this a very enjoyable episode.
