About Masters of Horror

Masters of Horror ran 13 hours in Season 1 from October 28, 2005 on Showtime with Carpenter, Argento, Hooper and Miike entries. Season 2 ran 13 hours from 2006 to 2007 continuing the format. Fear Itself ran 8 hours in 2008 on NBC as the follow-up after Showtime passed, with Mick Garris still producing.

No third Masters season was ordered. Each hour resets cast and story. The 34 hours together form TV's director showcase run with a firm end. Standouts like Cigarette Burns and Pelts sit inside their seasons.

Good to know

Any hour works alone, yet release order shows budgets and censorship shifts from Showtime to NBC. Season 1 leans hardest into gore, Season 2 balances, Fear Itself softens for network. Pick standout directors first if sampling, then fill gaps. With no revival dated, the 2008 closer ends the line. With no revival dated, the 2008 closer ends the line.
