Inside No. 9: Paraskevidekatriaphobia (2023)
Season 8, Episode 3
1/10
Cringe and slapstick
3 June 2023
Probably the most boring episode, saved only by the soundtrack composition which tries to give the audience a sense of false suspense..

The deliberate over-the-top acting is cringeworthy, giving off a strong feeling of second-hand embarrassment.

The makeup effects on the main character's shoulder mishap in the upstairs bathroom scene are cheap and tacky.

The iconic "twist" at the ending was ridiculous and induced eye-rolls.

Genuinely have nothing positive to say about this episode:
  • the plot was weak
  • dialogue was strange
  • too much chaos for a build up that leads to nothing
  • unnecessary celebrity cameo
  • weird character backstory


Very disappointed in this one.
