Masterclass in Building Tension.
As this series progresses, it's becoming increasingly clear that the story being told is not exactly an overwhelmingly original tale but it is however portrayed in such an interesting & inventive way that the apparent lack of perceptible originality doesn't really seem to matter as much as you'd originally presume to think.
For instance, when you have a unique & distinctive filmmaker like Marc Munden at the helm - who brings his absolute A game to this installment - his unparalleled direction elevates the material he's given the work with from Dennis Kelly's scripts & truly immerses you in the trippy, surrealism of "The Third Day" until you're submerged beneath the oceans of Osea's nightmarish abnormality, drowning in its acid coloured, tangible atmosphere which relentlessly washes over you in waves.
Hence, this season feels more like a sensual experience than a TV show - as every creative decision seems to have been considered & then finally made with the intention of helping the audience to feel events as they unfold rather than understand them; whether it be Cristobal Tapia De Veer's dreamlike, haunting soundscape, Benjamin Kracun's expertly shot cinematography or Simon Smith's meticulously cut editing - crafting each sequence so as to distort the geography of the scene, leaving the audience feeling disorientated & confused as to where characters are in respect to one another; it's deliberately orchestrated so our personal emotions whilst viewing also reflect those of the main protagonist, Sam's - who's never really sure what's happening & what's a figment of his tormented imagination. As a result, we're left feeling uncomfortable & unnerved - falling deeper down the rabbit hole with him as the narrative continues to spiral.
