Episode 1: Incident On and Off a Mountain Road (Oct/28/2005)
Based on Joe Lansdale's short story of the same title, this episode pits Ellen, a seemingly defenseless young woman, against Moonface, a deformed and demented serial killer.

As the story cuts back and forth in time, we slowly discover that our heroine is not as helpless, nor as innocent as she initially seems. Trained by her abusive husband Bruce to be a survivalist, instructed to use any and every available object as a weapon in a time of need, Ellen gets to test the real life application of these lessons.

Ultimately, chained to the floor of Moonface's horrific cabin with a most unsavory roommate, she races against the clock to free herself before she meets a grisly fate. This gritty episode pits a strong female protagonist against evil incarnate.
