As a horror fan, I prefer more subtle movies, while "Masters of Horror" was packed with intestines belonging to eviscerated children and infants. The stories, though with some potential, were overshadowed by the disturbing images. Whenever I would watch an episode I kept shivering "Gee, that was odd...". I wasn't at all thought-provoking, it just wanted to impress gore fans - not true horror fans or those of you who like atmosphere horror and not flesh/blood/organs horror. They focused on crude images and mere graphic violence. Just a 6 out of 10 for this splatter series, as I would give to any such movie. With a pretentious name like "Masters of Horror" you can't help but expect more.
