Visually, there was a lot to love about this episode. Great camera work, lighting, sets etc and very Lovecraftian monsters giving it a great old school appeal.
However, the storyline wasn't all that clear at times and I'm not sure the depth of the story shone through in the way that was intended.
But, the biggest crime of this episode has to be the great Crispin Glover utterly butchering a Boston accent. The accent wasn't integral to the plot so why use it? It was so bad I couldn't always follow what Glover was saying.
So, good and bad in there but still worth watching. It's dark, it's gruesome, it's bloody and has monsters.
