The second season of Showtime’s popular anthology series Masters of Horror will make its debut tonight with the episode “The Damned Thing”, directed by Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre). From what I hear, a lot of people didn’t like his episode from the first season, so maybe this one will make up for it. Showtime have posted the complete list of episodes and directors on their website, and they are as follows:

1. “The Damned Thing” – Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre)
2. “Family” – John Landis (An American Werewolf in London)
3. “The V Word” – Ernest Dickenson (Tales From The Crypt: Demon Knight)
4. “Sounds Like” – Brad Anderson (The Machinist)
5. “Pro-Life” – John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing)
6. “Pelts” – Dario Argento (Suspiria)
7. “The Screwfly Solution” – Joe Dante (Gremlins)
8. “Valerie on the Stairs” – Mick Garris (Critters 2)
9. “We Scream For Ice Cream” – Tom Holland (Child’s Play)
10. “The Black Cat” – Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator)
11. “The Washingtonians” – Peter Medak (The Changeling)
12. “Right To Die” – Bob Schmidt (Wrong Turn)
13. “Dream Cruise” – Norio Tsuruta (Ringu 0)

You can catch a few clips from tonight’s episode over at Showtime’s official site (for people outside of the U.S., you can also watch it on TV.com). The series will air on Scream in Canada, with episode #1 premiering tomorrow at 11 pm. Which episode are you most looking forward to?
