Freddy's Nightmares - Episodes 41-44 Reviews

And now the final batch of episodes. Sadly, it's mostly an underwhelming serving of affairs, experiments and prison time.

Episode 41: A Family Affair

Oh this was a truly dull episode. A family man had an affair with his mistress while also being at odds with the son. At some point in the episode, following the deaths of the wife and mistress, the family man ended up needing home care. Not that it mattered because he still didn't make it out of the episode alive. 4/10

Episode 42: Dust To Dust 

I didn't particularly care for the cannibal story a few episodes back but here we are with a sequel. The three cannibals from that episode were part of a support group to not eat people. Of course they ended up eating a runaway experiment and found themselves to have consumed some kind of alien organism. It got worse because each one of them ended up reduced to dust as did the scientists who kept pushing their luck. 5/10

Episode 43: Prisoner Of Love 

It's interesting that the final two episodes of this show were prison themed episodes. This one focused on two women - Violet and Brenda on death row and with a deep seated hatred of one another. Then there was Father Jarvis, who fell in love with Violet and was planning to help her escape, only for Brenda to botch things. Brenda didn't get the last laugh as she ended up suffering a similar fate to Violet and things didn't exactly go well for Father Jarvis either. 6/10

Episode 44: Life Sentence 

The last episode of the show and it's another prison episode. This time, the focus was on robber and killer, Andy and the fact that he had a lot of money stashed away. Add a corrupt warden and unwilling doctor and Andy was subjected to a lot of drugs until his mind broke and the warden got what he wanted. It's not an awful episode but it's a shame that the show ended on an average note when we could've had something that expanded upon Freddy's lore. 6/10

And that's a wrap on this show. Mostly a mixed bag with some good episodes, a few outright stinkers and a lot of mediocre ones to boot.
