Storyline
Lisa becomes livid with Miss Hoover, and in a series of homages to classic Hitchcock sets out for deadly revenge. Next, Krusty's latest fast-food sandwich transforms news anchor Kent Brockman into an enraged zombie and twenty-eight days later, cannibal zombies have overrun Springfield. In the final frightening fable, Homer accidentally falls through a trapdoor in Moe's tavern and impales himself on the pipes of Moe's microbrewery. Moe serves the barflies a glass of delicious beer flavored with Homer's blood and Homer, now half-man, half-brewing apparatus, returns for vengeance.

The 20th TOH takes on a classic Hitchcock movie and a Simpsons version of The Walking Dead. I found the homage to Hitchcock very funny and enjoyable, even included a cameo of the master himself like he would in his own movies., it was made in black and white so it had that extra film noir appeal. The second story involved a zombie apocalypse, maybe a tribute to The Walking Dead, but based on a Krusty Burger that turns the Springfield population in "munchers", instead of "walkers". I enjoyed this one as well.
The third story was a musical set in a theater that has Moe's tavern as the main setting. This was a bit of a weak story and I did not enjoy as much as the first two.
