Are You Afraid of the Dark Universe? Return to the Black Lagoon
Last season, Dalton brought us a unique and ambitious reimagining of a Universal classic: THE BLACK LAGOON. It's a bleak and surreal horror story about gender, isolation, oppression, repression, and death. It's not a movie that calls for a sequel, and even less a movie that calls for a sequel from Dylan. Nevertheless, that was Dylan's assignment for this episode. Did he deliver? How does one write a follow-up to someone else's deeply personal story? Where does one find the balance between honoring someone else's voice and expressing their own?
These questions answered, plus the fates of Hunter Marin and the Ferryman, in this exciting episode!
