It’s SO GOOD. The ending is one of the best in the franchise.

Brancati is *absolutely* the series' MVP but I haaaaated how bland they made her character this season (save for her about-face in the finale). She works better with BIG characters.

Finale of RIPPER saved that season for me. It wasn't a total wash, but the gore was noticeably lighter and it was all kinda boring? The finale makes up for some of that, though.

Finale of HELL MOTEL I'm more mixed on.

#Slasher works best when it features characters you love to hate (S2-4) as opposed to characters you just hate (S5), and #HellMotel features the latter more than the former. But it's got some standout sequences, with the slasher-within-a-slasher flashback in Ep 6 being the season's standout.

Seriously, though. Jettison Mayhem into the sun. I *hated* that character so much.

It’s from 1965 so *most* of those things are heavily implied rather than explicitly shown.
