I watched this when i was seven.Scariest episode ever clearly based on Clive Barker's Hellraiser as Crainiac is based on Pinhead and the Varthac on the Cenobites, creepies me even now that i'm 22 years old because every time i see it i remember Pinhead and his brethren (Although Clive Barker never named him, the movie crew did).
@xExemplary yes, unfortunately for kids this episode is based on the universe of Hellraiser and is the scariest episode on the series. Even if you tone it down, basing an episode on a terrific horror movie with a monster that says "I will tear your soul apart" can only lead to a scary story (a very good one though).
@cole003f Who knows? weird things like this happen sometimes. I'm still tryng to understand, for example, how a bond girl could be named Pussy Galore, or how did this name get past censorship
I just noticed that the horror novelist (a character in the story) is named J. N. Kline, while the actual producer of the series is Jeff Kline! SELF INSERTION!!!
@sparkshark789 The fictional author is an obvious parody of R. L. Stine, the author of many of the Goosebumps series. This is a send-up of Stine and his work.
O em gee, I used to love this sooo much! I used to wait until 11 pm at night just to watch this!!! I think I'm addicted to it nao.... :3 I love this episode, I love Rage too.
@brianpaulson1 "The green Ghost that Eats Alot" His name is Slimer dude, he's been with the Ghostbusters Since they defeated Gozer the Gozerian, or the Destructor. and at the time Futurama hadn't been born from Matt Groening's mind yet, So Billy was still Stuck doing Stimpy from "The Ren and Stimpy Show" and if a character isn't in an episode of a series, the actor doesn't get paid, so it's likely Billy played Slimer just to keep from going Broke
@vboytan more of a homage that ripoff. also the author's name is J. N. Cline, who's name is obviously based on R.L Stine. also I assume his name is based on producer Jeff Kline as well.
@IvynTaasin It always struck me in par with Hellraiser, I wonder how Pinhead would react to Craniac? Methinks they would get along quite well :S unfortunately for us.
I luv this show since I was a kid and still like it da show is worth watching
