Review of The Terror Game by Bongo50
11 November 2024
Firstly, this story pretty much completely recontextualises the previous entries to The Stranger series, disconnecting the series from Doctor Who quite a bit. I don't really mind this, but it could bother some people. I found this mostely enjoyable to watch. I liked the directing, and the pacing felt good. However, it felt somewhat confusing with a lot of the sci-fi elements being somewhat poorly explained. This did serve to create a nice, mysterious, atmosphere, which I liked, but it also made things a little hard to follow. There's also not that much actual substance here, in my opinion. To end on a positive, I liked all of the acting.
