Every new terror just made Don more brave! Has there ever been anything more counter-productive?<br /><br />These are the kind of "rule based" horror stories you saw a lot of in the early 50s pre-code. You setup how the evil is powered or by what stopped it in the first place, and then it's a race to recreate. Some of them don't even set it up -- it just happens. This one at least pre-announces the rule set, so it gets +1 for that.<br /><br />Where it loses points is stuff like the old woman illusion -- that side trip does nothing to advance the story.<br /><br />I love the look of the evil one. It's great! The art saves this one.Brian Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15737535617796413548noreply@blogger.com
