The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror is a collection of the "Treehouse of Horror" specials from The Simpsons. The episodes included are "Treehouse of Horror V", "Treehouse of Horror VI", "Treehouse of Horror VII" and "Treehouse of Horror XII".
"Treehouse of Horror V", as with every TOH episode, has three mini stories. In this episode, Homer takes his family up to a hotel in the mountains and goes insane in "The Shinning" (one of the best TOH stories of all time), Homer travels through time and changes history in "Time and Punishment", and in "Nightmare Cafeteria", Principal Skinner finds a solution to the overcrowding in his school and the shortage of meat in the cafeteria...
"Treehouse of Horror VI" includes "Attack of the 50 Foot Eyesores", where all the giant advertisements in Springfield come to life and start eating everyone, "Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace", in which Groundskeeper Willy dies and comes back to invade the nightmares of the children of the people who completely ignored his cries of help, and "Homer3", Homer travels to a strange universe with 3 dimensions and eventually ends up in the most terrifying universe: ours.
"Treehouse of Horror VII" has "The Thing and I", in which Bart and Lisa discover Bart's Siamese twin, who plans to sow them back together, "The Genesis Tub", where Lisa's science experiment goes a little awry and she ends up creating life, who all think she is god, and "Citizen Kang", in which Kang and Kodos abduct Homer and take him to Washington where they capture Bill Clinton and Bob Dole and take their place, knowing that one of them will win the election.
Finally, in "Treehouse of Horror XII" we have "Hex and the City", in which a gypsy, angry at Homer for wrecking her place, puts a curse on his family and the people he cares about, "House of Whacks", where the Simpsons upgrade their house with a computer that takes care of everything, but it soon starts to take an unhealthy interest in Marge, and "Wiz Kids", a spoof on Harry Potter, where Bart and Lisa are attending wizard school, and we are introduced to Lord Montymort and Slithers, who plan to capture Lisa so Montymort can take her essence and make himself more powerful.
I love these specials, being a fan of Horror and Sci-Fi films, I love when they spoof famous films like "The Shining" and. They always seem to give a little extra to these specials, and they look like they're having a lot of fun making them as well. And as these episodes don't have to adhere to the series' rules of continuity, they can kill off whoever they want!
Extras are unsurprisingly sparse, with only a 'Kang and Kodos' Featurette included here. If it's extras you want the season box sets are your best bet, they have commentaries, TV spots, storyboards and a lot more!
Overall a great collection of episodes, if they ever release all of them in a big DVD set, I'll be the first in line to buy them! Five stars.
