I'm sure someone will have much better caps of the ep than I have, but to tied you over... a few.
... that's as far as I've gotten this morning. Have other things I need to get to, so more at another time. :)
And some information on what's next...
Masters of Horror - 13 Master-ful DVD Releases (But Not 13 Episodes) To Be A Pricey Proposition
Posted by David Lambert

IDT Entertainment produces the Showtime series Masters of Horror, a series of "1-hour movies" from some of the best-known directors of scary stuff. So it's no surprise that IDT-owned Anchor Bay is releasing the DVDs of this show. What might surprise you, though, is that they plan to release 1 hour-long episode/"movie" per DVD, at a cost of $16.98 SRP per release or 2-packs (and in one case, a 3-pack) for $29.98 SRP. Wow, with discounted street prices on the single-disc releases around $12-ish, for just an hour's worth of content (bonus material notwithstanding), this proves to be one of the priciest propositions in recent times for TV-DVDs!
But at least all 13 episodes will come out on the various DVDs, right? Uh...so far Anchor Bay has only announced DVDs for 6 of the installments. Oh, and they're not in order...they just all over the place. Editorial aside: We usually love Anchor Bay's stuff most of the time, but we think they may want to reach for their flame-proof suits here, because fans of this series are apt to burn them up over this show's DVD release strategy!
Having said that, here is a list of the releases, their dates and prices, that we know about at this time:
* March 28th
o ($16.98 SRP) Masters of Horror - John Carpenter: Cigarette Burns (Ep. # 8)
Commentary tracks will be found on the Masters of Horror - John Carpenter: Cigarette Burns DVD by story writers Scott Swan and Drew McWeeny. We don't know yet whether or not there's also a commentary track by director John Carpenter, which of course would be the commentary that viewers would actually be jonesing for.
We don't have info about any other extras just yet, either, nor is cover art available either. Stay tuned, though, and we'll have more for you just as soon as Anchor Bay provides it. Don't drop dead on us in the meantime...
