Review of The Ultimate Poe by efficacy
18 September 2024
These interludes are such a mixed bunch. This one attempts to embroil 6 and Mel into a series of imaginary death-traps based on the works of Edgar Allen Poe but ultimately only provided a pale pastiche with none of the depth of the original writing.
There were one or two mildly clever gags in it (Edgar Alien Poe, for example) , but they were largely wasted.
Ultimately, I was left disappointed and with the feeling that somewhere in the universe there must be a much better tale of Poe's mysterious final days.
