i originally give this episode a rating of two i now wish i would think more about it . i also wish they have negative rating option . watch it and i be amaze at how poor the whole thing be from start to finish . i adore ron pearlman and and john carpenter . so what go wrong . last season episode 13 be pull due to the way it handle the abortion issue . i think that this season mr carpenter manage to make something so grey area that you can not immediately see if he be pro choice or anti abortion . it be only after i sit and think about it that i realize he be very much anti abortion you get this most clearly in the end when the mother shoot the baby and kill it and to the dismay of the father and who walk off in grief and leave the mother unharmed . but you also see it in the way the ron p. character be treat i hardly think that if someone have prove themselves enough of a threat in the past so a to have a restrain order against him that they would not immediately be ring the police . instead we have the guard almost sympathetically deal with him ( only to pay for it in the end ) i do not mind someone have a strong view on something and even if it isn not something i agree in and but i do think it a bit lame not to stand by that view and rather than try to look like theyre sit somewhere in the middle . but and political issue aside and this episode be beyond poor . the music be retro 70 and just plain do not work . the acting ( other than ron p. ) be poor . the effect be dreadful it might have be well just to not show the monster at all rather than show the lame excuse for a monster they have . all this be say and i be glad they have the master of horror i do not mind sit through some really poor episode to find the good one . it a bit like rent horror movie from the video store every now and again you get a good one and it make it all worth while . i do agree with the poster that say maybe the name need to change from master some of these people just plain do not deserve the title . ( let me stress tho even tho i hat this episode and john carpenter totally deserve the title . he be a master thru and thru ) .
