The Simpsons are back with part 2 of this year’s Halloween celebration, “Treehouse of Horror XXXIII“ featuring the cult anime ‘Death Note’ and Australia’s special brand of scary ‘Babadook’.
This year’s official “Treehouse of Horror” episode parodies Death Note and The Babadook, the former of which brings the Simpsons characters into Death Note‘s familiar anime style.
The segment is titled ‘The Death Tome’. In a book-themed trilogy, Marge’s resentment takes monstrous form, Lisa tries to save the planet through an anime murder spree, and Homer learns he’s not the man he thought he was.
The Death Note segment has been animated by the Korean studio DR Movie, which has a long history working on The Animatrix to Justice League, and the Death Note anime series.
The Halloween special will air on October 30 and is set to be the second of three segments. Sandwiched between a Babadook parody starring Marge, and a take on Westworld.
