“Sanguinarium”

The opening scene of this episode was so disturbing, it gave me literal chills. It has been a long time since a TV show had done that to me.

Combining plastic surgery with black witchcraft is a bizarre choice, but it makes sense throughout this episode. The story itself is not as strong as some others that we have seen during thee monster-of-the-week episodes, but the horrific visuals made up for that.

Plus, Twin Peaks’ own Benjamin Horne, actor Richard Beymer, appeared as Dr. Jack Franklin, the driving force behind the black magic at the hospital. In fact, Dr. Franklin was able to escape and set up shop in another hospital at the end, showing the failures of our protagonists.

The scene where Ben errrr Dr. Franklin, I mean, started peeling off his face, well, that was extremely disturbing as was most of the surgical scenes involving the patients and the doctors which are mesmerized.

There were some twists that did not make much sense.
