    Sinister style over dramatic substance
    My eyes were crossing by the third episode and I knew that there was no way to save this script. Self-indulgent acting by otherwise good actors, a script that dies quite soon after Hattie did and direction that pulled out every bit of scariness -- fish eye lenses, ultra closeups, trees waving mysteriously in the wind, scary music -- enough!! BBC is usually quite good about taking a spare three to five episodes and making for a satisfying story that would take most American series 26 episodes to complete. No more episodes would save this turkey. By the last episode, I wondered who killed the script, not who killed Hattie.
