Summary: misleading
Review: it was an alright dvd...but if you look at the dvd case it shows mister burns as dracula....a very funny episode...but the episode is not on the dvd

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Bare Bones DVD for Fans Only
Review: This DVD contains Treehouse of Horror V, VI, VII & XII, that's really about it. The video quality is about broadcast quality. However, scenes with quick motion get blurry. Audio is pretty good. The DVD menu is slooooooooooooooow. The best thing about the DVD is the episodes aren't edited, like in syndication. If you can't wait years (if the trend continues) for the season sets and love The Simpsons, I suggest you purchase this DVD.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Just 4 episodes?
Review: Wow, I love the Simpsons, but this DVD is a ripoff. If they were going to go through the trouble of releasing a Treehouse of Horrors collection, they should have included all the Treehouse of Horror's to date, instead of just 4 of them. Last I counted, there have been 13!! They shouldn't be wasting their time with cheesy 4 episode sets. Instead, they should focus on releasing the seasons a little quicker. By the time they get around to Season 8, there will likely be newer, better medium than DVD. Save your money and wait for Season 4.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not as well-done as the Season Releases, but...
Review: Okay what we have here are 4 Treehouse of Horror Simpsons episodes (5,6,7, and 12). There are no commentaries or special features other than a 3 1/2 minutes of Kang and "my sister" Kodos clips. The episodes are funny, and they all look great on DVD. You get the spoof of THE SHINING and NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET along with many of the Sci Fi themed ones like the 2001 spoof with Pierce Brosnan as the evil in love with Marge home computer. You could wait for these on the season releases, but these come from season 6,7,8 and 13! I don't think FOX will stop releasing SIMPSONS on DVD sets, but the slow pace is from the creators who want each set to be chock full of extras and commentaries. So it could be a few years before they even get around to season 6. They are some of the wackiest episodes! And the price is pretty reasonable. So I say enjoy!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Collector's Item
Review: Even though everyone is correct in that this DVD DID NOT include all of the Halloween Specials, I still believe this is a DVD for all Simpsons fans out there. The $10.00 for this DVD is well worth it in the collector's perspective and that is why I bought it. I concur that Season's 1-3 are a much better Collector's item, this "Tree House of Horrors" is more of an accessory to the whole kit-n-kaboodle of Simpson's DVD out there now and to be released.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Just Buy Each Season
Review: We bought this DVD under the premise that it included episodes 5, 6, 7 and 12. Key word being included, not only. Never assume is a lesson well learned. We were then highly disappointed by the fact that these were the only episodes on it. In my opinion these aren't even the better episodes. Unless you just want these four you had better just settle on buying the season releases or taping the slew of them they play on Fox the week of Halloween.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What a rip-off!
Review: Your money would be better spent buying Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, etc. of the Simpsons rather than shell out hard-earned cash for this junk. If they are going to release a "Treehouse Of Horror" DVD, what not have ALL the episodes on there??? What a freakin joke! Do the masterminds behind this two-bit excuse to make more money take us for idiots? Don't buy this DVD! Buy the season series instead and get ALL of the "Treehouse Of Horror" episodes!!! Makes sense to me....

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Something Fishy Going On Here!
Review: This DVD release is horrifying. Not in the regular sense of the word, but in the sense that why couldn't they just wait to release these episodes with their respective seasons.

What this release says to me is that FOX is going to discontinue releasing the DVD seasons. I have no idea when or if my fear is even a valid one, but with a release such as this and the slow release schedule of the first three seasons, one can't help but wonder.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: FOX is getting worse all the time.
Review: Don't get me wrong, I LOVE The Simpsons,and greatly enjoy the Halloween episodes,and I can't wait until it arrives in my mailbox.Finally, I'll get to see "HomerĀ³" with a clear picture (as opposed to the grainy one I taped off TV so many eons ago) My one star is for FOX.They initially said Season 5 of the Simpsons would be out by now.Perhaps this Treehouse of Horror DVD was a way of trying to make up for it a little (or bilk us out of more money, take your pick), but FOX ISN'T EVEN PROMOTING IT! No store in my area has it, and people look think I'm making it up when I ask for it. I tried 2 national chains,and nobody knows what I'm talking about! How can people buy your product if nobody knows it's out there?

If you've found tis page, then you obviously know it's out there. If you're wondering about buying it...well..you must be a Simpsons fan, or you wouldn't be staring at these reviews,right? If you enjoy their yearly Halloween escapades, then go for it!Some of the best are to be found here.I wouldn't reccomend it for those who are easily grossed out. Though it's exaggerated cartoon violence, some people can't seem to grasp the fact that they're only drawings! No actors were harmed in the making of these episodes. (well..then again..we ARE talking about FOX here). So grab a bag full o' Halloween candy (mmmm...free candy),stuff yourself silly, have a scare, and laugh your hairy yellow ... off! (You'll probably have to order it from right here at Amazon, as nobody else seems to be aware that it even exist)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween, Simpsons-style
Review: The "Treehouse of Horror" Halloween episodes of the Simpsons have consistently been some of the funniest of the series. It's great to finally see some of them collected on one DVD. For the Simpsons completists who already own the first three seasons on DVD and plan on buying the rest, you don't have to worry about getting redundant material because this DVD collects the later "Treehouse of Horror" episodes that probably won't be in season anthologies until years from now. So, if you were holding out for that reason, I recommend you stop holding out and get this DVD now.
