Quite possibly my second favourite of the season where I'm up to so far, apart from The Lonely. Great atmosphere and the "what goes around comes around" taken to the extreme ending is very fitting.

Genre favourite James Fransiscus popping up at the end as well!

A big improvement on the last segment IMO.

This is one of my favourite episodes of the whole series, with so much atmosphere, tension and suspense that you wonder how it can to resolve itself without everything blowing up. I knew this was out of the question because of budgetary constraints but the ending they come up with is utterly brilliant and must have been an influence on films like Dead of Night and even Triangle.
