The Third Day ep3 review, Culture Whisper
This is an hour best spent in the dark, curtains drawn, before sleep sweeps your reality away. That's the atmosphere of The Third Day’s third episode, supposedly concluding the story of the grief-stricken Sam (Jude Law) as he tries to escape Osea island. Writer Dennis Kelly boils a devastating nightmare from which neither you nor Sam can wake.
Even more than the previous two parts, which straddled the twilight zone between dreaming and waking, episode three reverses that hypnopompic experience. The real world is carried away; intangible, unreachable. Sam is stuffed into the buried core of a dangerous trance – conjured up, it seems, by a horror-movie fanatic.
