The Simpsons: Top 10 Treehouse of Horror Segments

1. The Shinning - THOH V

In a direct lampoon of the seminal horror film - well, I€™m sure you know which one - the family stays in an abandoned hotel over winter with the rest of the plot being summed up neatly by the ever-memorable lines; €˜No TV and no beer make Homer something something.€™ €˜Go crazy?€™ €˜Don€™t mind if I do!€™ Packing so many laugh-out-loud moments into just about nine minutes, this utilises its source material better than any other of the show€™s parodies and succeeds in making Homer a scary lunatic as well as giving supporting character Groundskeeper Willie he€™s best role. It isn€™t just the best Halloween special segment it€™s possibly the best Simpsons episode ever. If you disagree with my choices, please use your €˜shinning€™ to tell me your favourites. Or, alternatively, just leave a comment below.
