Fox has released a promotional image and airdate for this season’s Treehouse Of Horror XX. For a nice change, the episode will be airing on October 18, before Halloween rather than after. The promotional image and episode synopsis can be seen below.
Act 1: Krusty’s latest fast food sandwich transforms Springfield into engraged zombies and twenty-eight days later, these munchers have overrun the town.
Act 2: Homer accidentally falls through a trapdoor in Moe’s tavern and impales himself on the pipes of Moe’s microbrewery. Moe serves Marge and the barflies glasses of delicious beer flavored with Homer’s blood while Homer, now half-man, half-brewing apparatus, trapped underneath the bar sings about his fate a’la Sweeney Todd.
Act 3: Lisa strikes a deal with Bart to take revenge on their teachers, but whenthe pan goes awry Lisa turns her vengence towards Bart in a series of homages to classic Hitchcock, including “Vertigo,” “Psycho,” “North By Northwest” and “Spellbound.”
Sounds promising!
Consistently among the season’s best! Also, I’d love to have a poster of that promo.
This looks like a good ToH. The Zombie ones are always good and now the acts are all based on Horror flicks not like some of the previous, like Mr & Mrs Smith and ET. Those were cr*p ones.
PS, where will Kang & Kodos come in to all this?
ACT I: Sounds pretty solid. It could turn out to be real good.
ACT II: I think this will be the best. It sounds both scary and funny.
ACT III: Well, I’m not so sure about this one. Bart and Lisa becoming murders sounds a little uneasy. I know it’s THOH and I can usually let anything go, but there’s something about this that I don’t like.
Act I sounds amazing!!! I love zombie flicks so I hope they don’t screw up this segment.
Act II sounds a little boring. The only songs or musicals I find entertaining are the one Family Guy does.
Act III sounds pretty promising. I always like when Lisa does roles that are totally different than the regular episodes. Lisa being a killer sounds lol.
Hmm, back to just 3 stories, interesting!
Didn’t they do one of them in one the treehouse of horror comics?
First and first – I GOT to have this TOH XX Promo Poster! This is surely the best one they’ve ever made.
And about the stories – They all sounds surprisingly good! While I was reading it, it really reminded me on the plots of those good – old TOH stories 5 or 6 years ago.
If this episode gets good rating, I think that this season might be a great (if not the last) chance for them to get back on that old path of glory!
I can’t wait to watch it!!
This looks so good. I hope season 21 will be good.
The poster is awesome! I hope they are actually available in print!
What worries me is they are all parodies of something else. Though, to be fair, they do look promising. We’ll wait and see, but judging by past attempts of THOH, my optimism is low.
the first THOH act looks boring,but,im counting on it be funny.act2 looks halarious!!!!!!!!!! act3 it lokks awwwsome.It looks like the most funny act.
