User Reviews

simple but good episode

John Dahl, the man from Joyride but also some episodes of Dexter, much acclaimed, and True Blood, better than Twilight, gives us this weird tale. My main mystery is how comes that the so called ghost of himself appears? He looks into a mirror and then things happen, it is never explained but it doesn't matter because you never see that mirror again. The story evolves into a kind of killer story. But again, I liked it, not to bloody but it is the brutality of the killer that works. And again like the episode before it has a real ending. Is it because those two were made by directors used by doing series? I can't tell.
