Sure, it might've been a lesser stepchild of Showtime's Masters of Horror, but Fear Itself was still refreshing in its presentation of horror mini-movies with strong casts and directors on a weekly basis on a major television network. Eight of the 13 episodes aired on NBC before being preempted by the Summer Olympics, the best being the eighth and final one, "Skin and Bones," leaving me wanting to see the rest all the more.
