This episode’s final segment (a riff on “Happy Death Day”) is decent enough, but the preceding two (based on “Toy Story” and “Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse”) are massive misfires. Segments: “Toy Gory,” “Into the Homerverse,” “Be Nine, Rewind” Smith” – standing out as the worst of the bunch since it is completely out of place. All three segments are snoozefests with barely interesting premises, with the middle one – a parody of the action film “Mr. Simpson,” “Heck House”Īlthough “The Simpsons Movie” was a box office hit in 2007, the series’ Halloween special that year was an all-time stinker.
Take a look at our photo gallery in which we countdown all “The Simpson” “Treehouse of Horror” episodes ranked from worst to best. Some have been saddled with so-so stories, misguided spoofs, or tales that include no elements of horror at all. But not every “Treehouse of Horror” episode has been a slam dunk. The Simpson clan and their fellow Springfield residents make terrific vessels through which artful mixtures of comedy and horror can be conveyed. Many of their segments stand as stellar examples of both original scary stories and parodies of creepy classics. “The Simpsons” team certainly deserves high praise for keeping this tradition going. More than 100 unique segments have been produced, factoring in each episode’s short opening sequence. Over the course of three decades, they have still not run out of ideas. They’ve placing these beloved characters in spooky, often treacherous situations. Since 1990, the creative brains behind the show have offered a fun yearly break from the floating timeline continuity. Just as “The Simpsons” has been a Sunday night staple for a record-breaking 33 seasons and counting, the show’s annual “Treehouse of Horror” episode has long been established as a Halloween tradition.
