SOUTH PARK: PINKEYE (TV)
Summary
One in this series of animated programs for adults about the town of South Park, which is populated by an oversexed school chef, a psychotic teacher, Jesus Christ, and a group of acerbic, foul-mouthed youngsters. In this episode, a Russian spacecraft crashes into Kenny and kills him. At the morgue, embalming fluid is accidentally mixed with Worcestershire sauce and the concoction turns Kenny into a zombie, who attacks the morticians. At the bus stop, the other children wonder who will win the Halloween costume contest. Kyle, dressed as Chewbacca, and Cartman, dressed like Adolf Hitler, ridicule Stan's Raggedy Andy costume, as Kenny arrives without one, looking rather dead. Meanwhile, the morticians develop bad cases of pink eye and begin running amok in South Park, chomping on people's brains. At school, Kyle is upset that everyone is wearing Chewbacca costumes. Chef, dressed as Evel Knievel, asks Cartman to remove his offensive Hitler suit, so Cartman changes into a ghost outfit that resembles a Klan robe. Then, special guest judge Tina Yothers of "Family Ties" fame awards first prize to Wendy for her original Chewbacca outfit. The boys go trick-or-treating with Kenny, who is eroding away by the second, but they ditch him after he keeps biting people. At Chef's love palace, the kids find protection from the growing swarm of brain-eating zombies plaguing South Park. And upon visiting the morgue to look for clues, Chef and the kids find the Worcestershire sauce bottle, which includes a toll-free phone number to call. They try battling the creatures with a chainsaw, but Chef turns into a zombie akin to Michael Jackson from the music video, "Thriller." Luckily, Kyle learns the secret to stopping the pink-eyed, brain-chomping zombies. Commercials deleted.
