Review of Wild Blue Yonder by DanTheMan2150AD

Is that it?

Tobe Hooper would be proud. Wild Blue Yonder was the one we knew the least about going in and holy hell did that pay off for Russell because this got very screwed up very fast. Next to no guest cast other than the core TARDIS team? Check. Isolated location? Check. Going into full-on horror mode? Absolutely yes!

Wild Blue Yonder takes a multitude of inspiration from many classic films, be it The Thing, The Exorcist and even Event Horizon, combining them into a metric mindf**k of a story that really highlights why this is Doctor Who at its best. Tom Kingsley's direction is masterful, Murray Gold's score is phenomenally atmospheric and genuinely unnerving, and the acting with Tennant and Tate is top-notch. I really can’t sing its praises enough; the less you know, the better.

Wild Blue Yonder is just phenomenal, guaranteed to be talked about for years to come, although I could have done without the pre-credits sequence. Also WILF!

Your arms are too long.
