Room 104 Episode 1
I think this is a fairly good episode. It kind of felt a bit like filmed theater in parts. And not quite as dark or unsettling as an episode of Twilight Zone. One of my favorite episodes of Twilight Zone is the one with the lady at the bus stop. That's unsettling. Room 104 isn't quite there. They try to play the twist but not keep the ending. Which I thought was kind of a cop out even if you explain it on the Room. Still I'll watch more of these episodes probably in October to see what other stories happen in this room.
Room 104 Episode 2
I cheated and watched another. I didn't really like this one as it wasn't like a spooky Twilight Zone type episode. In fact, I was kind of disappointed in the subject matter. I'm sad to admit that I've seen some messed up stuff on the Internet. One of those being those dirty Pizza delivery guy videos. And the way this was setup early on, all I could think was they are making a story out of those crude videos. At one point, it seemed to add a bit of a Tarantino Reservoir Dogs moment. But then back to the pizza nonsense. I wasn't surprised by the twist when it happened. This episode seemed better suited to one of those softcore shows that come on Cinemax.
