Fear Itself: Spooked (2008)
Just plain awful
This whole episode was just weak compared to the first one. You can tell by the ending that the writer had no clue how to end it so they just said, "Hey, lets kill Harry and leave Merideth vindicated." I get it, it's a horror story so it shouldn't leave us with a happy ending, but that ending was so unsatisfactory that it ruined the whole thing. Not that it was that great to begin with.
First of all, it's shown that Harry is good at his job, yet he didn't even bother to canvas the place and see if there was any furniture in the house? Especially after the first night that nobody came in or out of the house.
Secondly, it was completely predictable. I knew the house he was watching was empty even before the last ten minutes of the episode. I knew Merideth was the sister of the guy Harry killed. The worst part, though, is that even though it was predictable the ride wasn't even satisfying. I've watched lots of stuff where I knew what was going to happen, but the ride there was so good I didn't mind it. However, Spooked left me uninspired, uninterested, and I felt like I wasted almost an hour on something that I could have used on anything else.
