Why this must be read:

For all the bright colors, hijinks, and cheery tunes, the Booshverse can be a dark place. This wacky, creepy take on “Little Red Riding Hood,” in which Vince (wearing a hooded red PVC catsuit) first encounters a mysterious (and snide) voice in the forest —
“Who’s that keeps speaking?”
I’m the, erm… narrator.
“The narrator?”
Yes. Every fairytale has one.

— and then finds an old enemy (the subtitle is a clue to who) lying in wait at Bryan Ferry’s cottage, captures both the humorous and horrific sides of the canon. Plus, there’s a zombie, and zombies are dead cool these days, right?
