Masters of Horror: Pelts (2006)
Season 2, Episode 6
6/10
Cool Idea But Overall Meh
18 August 2022
The story is a neat concept. Trapper/Fur trader finds the perfect pelts, but in his quest to make the perfect coat, a horrible curse is inflicted on all who touch the pelts. Meatloaf does a great job as the obsessed Fur Trader who both wants to become famous but also wants to win the heart of his love intrest, a stripper lol. John Saxon also is great for his brief cameo. However the stripper I just didnt like, and kind of killed the episode for me. Her performance was meh, nor did I find her attractive, which given how crucial she was to the story was a let down.

The gore is great and there are some truly chilling deaths. I agree with other reviews that the story doesn't really go anywhere, but then again where is it supposed to go? It's a short, fun albeit dark one hour segment that'll make you question the next time you pick up a fur coat.
