This week, we take a haunting look into the first four "Treehouse of Horror" episodes from "The Simpsons." In Part 1 of this super-sized two-parter, we review the movie parody and "Twilight Zone" parody stories from those first four annual Halloween-themed episodes.
Each "Treehouse of Horror" episode contains three stories and a framing device. Preston is the huge Simpsons fan, and he chose to structure our discussion by category.
First, we cover the "Twilight Zone" parodies regarding alien abduction, an all-powerful Bart, and a gremlin on a school bus instead of an airplane wing.
Next, we cover the movie-based parodies regarding a haunted house, a donut robot, a spooky clown doll, King Kong, zombies, a deal with the devil, and Dracula.
Were Dave & Todd's opinions of these "Treehouse of Horror" specials as strong as an oak or as sad as a willow? Was there a consensus to match Preston's love for these, or were opinions a mixed cauldron? Which episode was one Geek's S-tier? The three stories from the 2nd installment were all nightmares, but did one Geek find any of these episodes to be real-life nightmares? Listen now for the answers to these and other bewitching questions as we climb...the "Treehouse of Horror."
Stay tuned for Part 2, coming soon, where we cover the two literature-based parodies regarding Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" and a wish-granting monkey's paw. In Part 2, we also discuss "The Simpsons" in general, including a debate about the show's comedic style.
