    In the first Halloween episode of south Park, Kenny becomes a member of the undead, and soon others do too. The only way to stop the undead is to kill the person who started all this; Kenny. Will Stan, Kyle and Cartman be able to stop the undead in South park, or is this the end?

    I generally like Halloween episodes of shows, but to be honest this one bored me a little. Not really anything real funny and the plot did not interest me a lot. Because of all of this my final grade for this episode is a Cmoreless

  • Not my favourite of Season 1, but fairly solid.

    This episode has an excellent storyline, but not as many hilarious quotes as other season 1 episodes. The storyline is the most obvious ob all the season 1 episodes, being that the story isn't sidetracked by conversations and interaction, which can be a good thing, but can also be a bad thing. For me it was so-so. The fact that it was the first South Park halloween episode might be the reason I am being so lenient, but I sincerely that there are a fair few season 1 episodes that are better than this. Probably only did it because it was the season, so I'll let it go.moreless

  • Another dramatic South Park episode.

    9.3
    "Superb"
    By Skyancez, Jan 13, 2011 Report Abuse
    This episode, along with a "Pig Makes Love to a Elephant" are episodes that have plots that are imaginable and good.

    This episode had full drama, the zombies attacking, the boys trying to defend the town and themselfs. Fantastic.

    It had great humor, it was pure excellance.

    The look on the character's costume suit is amazing. For a show like South Park to have "less" graphics. It was amazing how they pulled this stunt of.

    This also had plenty of gore. Which many past South Park episodes did not have. Many people like gore.

    It also had the brilliance of Chef's singing skills. That added the comedy and drama.

    In the end, this episode was a great one. It had everything, even romance put into it. Its a fantastic episode.

    The reason why I gave it a 9.3 is for one reason. I did not like the scenes with the class. It bored me quite frankly.moreless

    I'm gonna be honest with ya, season one of South Park is not my favorite season, but, I love Pink Eye. I love it because it's a halloween episode and because it has Zombies!! Kenny is going around biting random people and turning them into zombies, while Chef and the kids try to stop everything thats going on. I loved the Thriller spoof at the end. I thought it was funny how all they had to do was kill the original zombie which was Kenny, and they go and kill a bunch of citizens. One of the strongest episodes from season one by far. I give it a 9/10.moreless

    This is my 2nd favorite episode of Season 1.Okay,so Kenny gets hit by a satelite and now he turns everyone into zombies.The best parts were Chef singing Thriller,the guys killing the zombies and Cartman's mom on a magazine.Now,Wendy totally ruined Stan's Halloween because she dressed up as Chewbacca when she promised Stan as Raggedy Ann,which is ANOTHER reason to hate her.She deserved that Stan wished she was dead.But the ending was sweet.Stan barfed on Wendy again,which is totally sweet.They are totally ment to be.Anyways,this episode was the best.And I loved it because Wendy learned a lesson and Chef does a Michael Jackson tribute.Loved it.moreless

    ADD TRIVIA
    • This is the fastest Kenny has ever died in an episode. Only surviving for 27 seconds after the opening theme song. Edit
    • In the scene where it shows the kids as Chewbacca at the costume contest for a split second, Wendy's buttons disappear. Edit
    • While wearing the Chewbacca costume, Mr. Hat's eyes are in the normal position on his head, not on top of the hat's rim. The magazine title goes from "Crack Whore" to "Naughty Mom" for a moment, when Chef approaches Stan. In the Mir space station scene, the astronauts are seen with the Dutch flag, instead of the Russian one, on their chest. Edit

  • Notes

    ADD NOTES
    • For this first 7 episodes, the show won the 1997 CableACE Award in the "Animated Programming Special or Series" category. Edit
    • The inscription on Kenny's tombstone at the end reads "Sleep well, little child, the Lord holds thee now." Edit
    • It appears that German history runs through the Cartmans' blood as Liane Cartman makes Eric a Hitler costume and Eric speaks German fluently. Edit

    • Stan: I learned something today. Halloween isn't about costumes or candy. It's about being good to one another and giving and loving. Kyle: No dude, that's Christmas. Stan: Oh. Well then what's Halloween about? kyle: Costumes and candy. Stan: Oh yeah. Edit
    • (The MIR space station crash lands on Earth, killing Kenny.) Stan: Oh, my God! They killed Kenny! Kyle: You bastards! Cartman: What the hell is that thing? Kyle: It looks like a UFO. Cartman: There's no such thing as UFOs! Edit
    • Principal Victoria: Good morning there, children. I love the Elvis costume, Chef. Chef: Elvis? I'm Evel Knievel! Why the hell would I dress up like Elvis?? Principal Victoria: Well, why the hell would you dress up like Evel Knievel? Edit

    • Smokey The Bear: The Bear who is in the video is named Puffy.This is a spoof of the Spokesbear Smokey. Edit
    • Raggedy Ann and Andy Stan came disguised as Raggedy Andy because Wendy was supposed to dress like Raggedy Ann. Raggedy Ann is a fictional character created for by Johnny Gruelle. it was a series of books for young children. Raggedy Ann and Andy are rag dolls with red yarn for hair. in the sequel Raggedy Ann stories Raggedy Andy is introduced as the brother of Raggedy Ann. his dress is a sailor suit and hat. Edit
    • Return of the Living Dead: The entire Zombie aspect of this episode is an homage to the movie Return of the Living Dead. Many aspects such as the doctors describing the zombies symptoms to the emergency hotline number on the Worcestershire sauce bottle is a throwback to the plotline of Return of the Living Dead. Edit
