Real cringe episode at the start, however the demon was quite funny. Music choices were slightly odd.
Wholesome ending.
"Wholesome ending?"
SPOILER alert:
For maybe two characters. What about the rest of the world?
It was cringe throughout. If the Devil had that kind of power, why the big plot to steal one single soul?
shareSatan only has that power if the person fails to kill the eligible individuals within the requisite time. Apparently, up until 1979, the killer was always successful at committing these 'devil-mad-me-do-it' murders to avert armageddon. Assumedly, Mr. Posset was successful in killing the three people whose deaths were featured in those old newspaper clippings. The fourth clipping was a banal article stating that year's May Day was celebrated joyfully without incident.
And I don't know that the devil is stealing the person's soul. My understanding was that, if successful, the killer's soul would be intact and the world spared from nuclear holocaust.
Isnt this the exact plot of Shaymalan's most recent movie, "Knock at the Cabin?
shareThe music choices were all hits in the UK in the year 1979 - The year the story takes place. There is absolutely nothing odd about it...
Really predictable, overly long and stupid plot anyways. This season was even worse than the ones before.
Again an episode that doesn't feel like it belongs in the Black Mirror universe...
If I ignore that this is a Black Mirror episode I actually found it quite entertaining... but as an entry in the Black Mirror canon it was quite disappointing.
