Quotes

Buddy: They say the eyes are the window to the soul. You see so many bad things in your life. It all comes in through your eyes. And sometimes your eyes lie to you, and show you things you don't wanna see. The eyes see all the evil, all the evil in the world...

User Reviews

Strong start to the "Masters of Horror" series

This first instalment of "Masters of Horror" is an entertaining affair. Featuring the "MOH" trademarks (beautiful actress, gore, suspense and impressive cinematography), this episode is a terrific way to while away an hour.

Don ("Phantasm") Coscarelli's adaptation of Joe Lansdale's short story is simple but hits all the right marks - it's an effective horror tale.

Bree Turner is delightful as the stranded woman who has to fight for survival against a bizarre killer, Moonface.

Angus Scrimm is the icing on the cake as the crazy Buddy.

As with some other "Masters of Horror" tales, "Incident" pushes the boundaries of what you'd expect to see on television. It's powerful stuff and delivered with polish and style.

In a word, "Superb".
