Ash vs Evil Dead: Trapped Inside (2016)
Season 2, Episode 6
7/10
I kill demons, not people. Unless those people are demons, who look like people. And then I kill people, but they're not really people, they're demons.

Another episode that advances at a snail's pace and its saved by the last five minutes. The series should be doing something about pace, because it is dragging a story-line that is thin as they come and wasting one of the most amazing characters ever.

Ash and the team are trapped in Ash's house, while the townsfolk have it surrounded and are asking for Ash's head (Baal has something to do into all this hate). Pablo is an open book (kind of). Chet has a crush on someone from Ash's past (creepy creepy). And Ash... well, Ash is a little bit lost with all that is going around.

As said above, the episode is another one that teeters on pointlessness. A bunch of characters shouting, more shooting in the dark, very little humor, characters that are used and thrown away for no purpose, totally wasted... The biggest problem is the pace, as the show is trying to fit two minutes of plot into a twenty-five minutes episode. It would be better to have shorter seasons (I know, I know, money), around six episodes, than a longer one that makes it all so boring.

With four episodes till the end of the second season, "Ash vs Evil Dead" is starting to overcome its welcome. A sharp turn will be necessary to infuse new life into the show.
