If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, 2001, Harry Potter, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Tron should consider themselves wildly flattered as they get the inimitable Simpsons skewering in this shockingly funny collection of four mostly classic "Treehouse of Horror" episodes. Best is "V," in which no TV and no beer make Homer go crazy in "The Shinning" ("You mean 'The Shining,'" Bart corrects. "Shh, you want to get sued?" Homer reprimands him). "VI" contains the ambitious, computer-animated "Homer3." "VII" features aliens Kang and Hados's finest quarter half-hour as they assume the identities of Bill Clinton and Bob Dole. "XII" boasts the star power of Pierce Brosnan as the voice of a mechanized house that falls in love with Marge and lures Homer to his apparent death with "unexplained bacon." For Halloween and beyond, this crypt-kicking collection is all screamingly funny treats. --Donald Liebenson

TREEHOUSE IS TERRIFIC
I LOVE THIS DVD! IT'S GOT ALL THE GREAT HALLOWEEN EPISODES. NOW IF ONLY THEY'D MAKE ANOTHER ONE.

ONE STAR!!! THAT'S RIGHT!!!
i love the simpsons. i love the treehouse of horror episodes. they are easily some of the best (especially the earlier ones). however, i still give this item one of five stars. when i got this, i didn't realize it was only a handfull of episodes. and not even the best selection either. i expected every ToH episode up until the moment i bought the dvd. i would have GLADLY paid three times as much for every episode in one collection. they're just worth having on dvd. so... if you really want the ToH episodes, i still wouldn't bother with this item. maybe if we all write the producers, they will release them all in one collection. they seem to have put some other worthless collections together, why not the treehouses of horror? anyhoo... the simpsons rock, but this is a poor excuse for an episodic collection.

Great DVD
The Treehouse Of Horrors have always been my favorite Simpsons episodes, and this DVD made my dream come true. The episodes are funny, and the best part is that they are old, and better than the newer ones, which are lamer and not as good or "scary." This is a must-have for fans of the Simpsons, so buy it if you love "terrifying" comedies.
