Storyline
| Plot Summary |
"Body Bags" was a horror anthology containing three stories: "The Gas Station" which has a female college student working a graveyard shift and getting terrorized by a serial killer, "Hair" about a hair transplant which goes horribly wrong, and "The Eye" where a baseball player loses an eye and gets a new one from a recently executed murderer; featuring John Carpenter as a creepy-looking and deranged coroner who introduces the three stories while drinking formaldehyde as if it were a martini, and it looked like the start of a wickedly demented series.
