User Reviews

I Like It But I Don't Like It

Normally I can give carefully explained reasons as to why I like or don't like something on Voyage/Sea but, for some reason, I find my view of this episode a bit hard to put into words: I like it but I don't like it. We are now at the 19th colour episode and, at this stage, we have seen a few colourful giant things do this, that and the other to the Seaview so the jellyfish footage might have lost some punch at this stage in the season?

It is nice that Voyage/Sea can take on any genre under the sun but this is almost mild horror stuff and not really my thing...I had the same horror problem with the season three/season four Werewolf/Manbeast episodes that would come later.

I will say this about Graveyard Of Fear, the early parts of the hour, when the Seaview is entering the graveyard, are very well done and come close to being called golden moments of Voyage/Sea.
