Spicy City was an anthology series, along the lines of Tales from the Crypt, but with a sexier, animated host: Raven, voiced by Michelle Phillips. Each episode featured a different science fiction story set in a futuristic city with a seamy side.

The show lasted for only one season, but became a cult classic among Bakshi fans. Episodes, however, became extremely hard to find, as they were never officially issued on VHS or DVD. Bootleg copies, however, have shown up on eBay.
