I think this is one of the first MoH episodes I have ever seen (if not the first) and I just want to say that while I didn't like the episode all-in-all, the monster was one of the freakiest ones I have ever seen.
I recently re-watched this episode and fast-forwarded to the parts where he is found.
The way he walks is creepy, and so is his weird twig-like hair.

Yes the monster is awesome, but so too is the entire episode, from start to finish. It's a masterpiece all-around. Too bad that there are only a few other episodes of this series that are anywhere near as good.
Yes, but how moral was it?
shareIt's a solid edition to the series, but my expectations before upon watching were set extremely high, considering the unlimited potential the storyline certainly had. However on a more positive note; I must say the creature was done to perfection in this episode. I mean the movements, and it's "face on" appearance generally freaked me out, and I can't remember the last time a horror movie or TV show gave me this type of feeling. Anyway, a 7/10 for mine: be sure to check my profile for constant updates on ratings per. episode

I'm the exact opposite thus far. I mean I haven't seen every episode from both seasons as of yet, however from the 11 I have seen, the quality of most of them have been rather high, with the only real exceptions of Jenifer and Pro-Life.

I found it weird that it more or less ripped of Rubber Johnny without giving Chris Cunningham any credit.
shareGlad someone else mentioned Rubber Johnny. When I saw Fair Haired Child, I thought "I've seen that thing before somewhere..." and then it hit me..."Rubber Johnny".
Have to admit I did like the Episode, and the storyline was good (especially the irony in the end). And the monster was good (and truly startling). I think it had a sort of "fairytale-ish" feel to the episode - especially the ending.
Holy crap... I was thinking the same thing. I mean, I was watching it and thinking that it looked kinda familiar. And then when it started bending and whatnot I just shouted That's Rubber Johnny". And his name was Johnny in the show!!! His name was Rubber Johnny!!

I will finish what I s
It looked somewhat like Rubber Johnny, but it's likely coincidental. It was not that similar to yell "rip off".
The monster in this one was great! I watched this right after "Pro life", where the monster is completely ridiculous, and it was quite refreshing.
shareAre you referring to the baby monster or the hell demon? Because I thought the hell demon looked AWESOME! The baby monster... so bad I couldn't even laugh it.
shareHmmm... I can't really remember the looks of them... I wasn't so impressed with the hell demon either, but then again, I had already watched "Fair-haired child", so the standard was pretty high ;)
shareI thought you said you watched Fair Haired Child after Pro-Life? Anyway, it doesn't matter. I agree that the Fair Haired Child monster was the coolest of all. I just wish they didn't put the monster on the title cover. It kind of ruined the shock.
