I'm watching this for the first time in a very long while, it's one of the stories I have very little love for, but I watch with an open mind. I will review each episode individually, as I believe there to be a huge disparity between the first two, and the last two
Part one, is actually very, very good. It's real space horror, it has a very creepy, uncomfortable vibe, the malevolent force is sinister, and gives the fear of the unknown. The model shots, I thought were pretty good, better obviously on a smaller television. The duo of Tom and Leela is terrific.
Tom is particularly brilliant, when he's possessed and hunting Leela, he truly is terrifying, and very cold. Michael Sheward is great also.
Really impressed by Part 1, I always laugh that there's a character called Meeker. It makes me think of Rentaghost, and from memory I remember parts 3 and 4 resembling that show, but time will tell.
Off to a flyer. 8/10
