This show is far above any horror show I've seen.
And this episode took it even to another higher level.
It makes an American Horrorstory look like amateurs.
(To the makers,writers actors,crew etc..)Where were you all my life?
This is the perfect horror show,
Thank you.
Having just gone to the funeral of my 42 year old cousin, I can relate to the gathering of family in this episode, the awkward conversation, the memories, the anger and the love through it all. The filming technique was absolutely amazing, the continuous cuts were superb, intertwined with flashbacks of days in the house. When Dad walked in, and all he saw were his young children , that got me. So well done.

There is so much to account for when planning long one-takes like this episode does. Watch it again to see just how deliberately everything is shot. No matter where the camera moves - and no matter where the characters move - everything is seen and it looks perfect. There were moments where I had to pause the show due to being so impressed at how everything is framed.
I can watch this episode over and over just to see the perfection happen, but at around half way through, I can't help but stop being awed by the cinematography because the story itself is also just as amazing.
This must be one of the best episodes of any television show that I've ever seen. I just finished the episode and all I want to do is watch it again.
Well done.

Oh my goodness, this episode is incredible. One other reviewer described this as an almost dance and it really is.
Everything is just so tight. The acting is spot on by both the adults and kids and there are some genuinely amazing one shot takes.
I am so impressed with this series. It's so clever. So well written. Brilliantly acted as well

This episode, stands out from the former 5 just by the cinematography alone. An incredibly easy and gripping way to pull you into the story before you. 16 minutes of one take and you're transported from one place to another, with no cut in between. What makes this even more compelling is all the background action that is subtle and disturbing. Definitely an episode to watch again for all the secrets hiding in the shadows.
