Saw that the first episode of the 2nd season of Masters of Horror is coming out soon...and was wondering what your favorite episode of season 1 was? And why? Which episode do you consider to be the best of the series so far? Who takes home the Masters of Horror best episode trophy and who takes home the runner up trophy?

1. John Carpenter - "Cigarette Burns"

2. Stuart Gordon - "Dreams in the Witch House"

3. John Landis - "Deer Woman"

4. Don Coscarelli - "Incident on and off a mountain road"

5. Tobe Hooper - "Dance of the Dead"

6. Joe Dante - "Homecoming"

7. Lucky McKee - "Sick Girl"

8. Dario Argento - "Jenifer"

9. Mick Garris - "Chocolate"

10. Larry Cohen - "Pick Me Up"

11. John McNaughton - "Haeckel's Tale"

12. William Malone - "The Fair Haired Child"

13. Takashi Miike - "Imprint"

That's all the episodes in season 1....so, which one was your favorite and why??

Oh, and Dario Argento's "Pelts" from season 2 looks pretty awesome...

"Incident on and off a mountain road." Moonface was such a twisted little shit, wasn't he?

"Dance of the Dead." I like it's faithfulness to Richard Matheson's short story. (Matheson is my favorite author, BTW.)

The only one I've seen is Dance of the Dead, which I didn't like very much.

I've been wanting to see Incident on and off a Mountain Road though.

Cigarette Burns & Imprint are the only decent episodes from season one.

Sounds Like, Right To Die, & Dream Cruise were the best from season two, imo.

Yes, Cigarette Burns and Imprint are the best of the first season.

I also liked Jenifer.

The second season belongs to Sounds Like. So good it was stunning, maybe the best episode in the entire series thus far.

Yeah. I also forgot The Washingtons. That was my 2nd fave of season 2.

Such a cool story!

sooooooooo when are these gonna come out on dvd already

This is probably the nicest box set of season one from the Sweedish Njuta films. Even though the writing on the boxes would be in Sweedish.

Haven't seen any of the episodes yet. Now that you guys mention it I really want to know.............I'll have to rent them or something.

Mt. Road was the best so far..Jenifer was creepy and pretty good but I can tell you which ones were the worst too.....The Washingtonians was TERRIBLE!! The Black Cat( great Poe story) was also very bad and an insult to the master!

the only new eps ive seen up for dvd are pro-life, pelts, and family

There all amazing!!<3<3<3

they added right to die to amazon.com

when are they gonna start showing some episodes for season three for preview

Masters of Horror panel at New York Comic-Con this weekend was anything but horrific, with a host of talent showing up to entertain fans. Directors Mick Garris, John Landis, and Stuart Gordon were in attendance, as were actor Jeffrey Combs and scripters Dennis Paoli and F. Paul Wilson. The question on everyone's mind at the event of course was whether or not a third season of the Showtime series will happen.

"There's no official word yet," Garris, who also created the show, told IGN in an exclusive interview after the panel. "We're still waiting for the official word and we expect it any time now. We are cautiously optimistic. I think it's going to happen."

Assuming Masters of Horror does go to a year three, Garris and his team already have a host of "master" genre directors lined up for a new season. In fact, getting high profile filmmakers interested in the show isn't a problem; it's that more mundane aspect of Hollywood -- scheduling -- that's the hard part.

"George Romero we're still trying to get onboard," says Garris. "He has committed over and over to do it, but trying to schedule a dozen 10-day shoots in a row with the same crew and slotting in directors with feature careers is the most complicated part of producing this series. Romero is one, Guillermo del Toro is another one, Rob Zombie is another, Wes Craven… All of them have said, 'Yes, we're going to do it.' But we just haven't managed to corral them. I'd love to get Stephen King back in. There are a bunch of people we're talking to. If season three happens the way we hope it will, there are a bunch of different folks. Eli Roth we're talking to. … Neil Marshall is another one."

Landis also chimed in on the director issue, adding that Clive Barker and Frank Darabont are both up for doing an episode each. The American Werewolf in London helmer also exhibited his classic sense of humor when he added that "James Whale was going to do one, but he's dead!"

But Dennis Paoli, the scripter of Re-Animator, doesn't see that as an issue. "We can take care of that!" he laughed

is it me or are the newest dvd's comming out really slow compared to the first season.........is it me or is this the truth.

Personally the only two episodes i found that were worth watching from season 1 were cigarette burns and the incident on and off a mountain road. Other than that fair haired child might be worth watching but al the others i thought were completely boring and sometimes pretentious. Cigarette burns i thought however, was very good.

From what i have seen of season 2, i feel there is much potential from this show in the future. Saying this there are only three that i completely enjoyed those being the one with the evil ice cream man, the tobe hooer one about the darkness that engulfed the small town and the one with the guy who went insane from working at the call center

Oh man I'd love to see a Neil Marshall episode.
