Review of Spooked

Fear Itself: Spooked (2008)
Season 1, Episode 2
7/10
Same moral theme at the end?
3 July 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is the best episode of the series thus far. I went into this disliking Eric Roberts, but thrilled at the prospect of the director of The Machinist doing an episode. I liked the opening scene and couldn't wait for the story to get rolling, but then there was a lot of set up dialog (I understand why it was used), but it really slowed the pace and suspense. The house setting was truly creepy and some of the scenes in the house were disturbing at the most basic level. When the twist is slowly being introduced, I thought it was going to be something totally original; however, the ending was a little too close to that of The Machinist. All in all, it is a good episode, but don't expect a big pay off at the end.
