This is the bottom of the barrel. Even Spock's Brain was better than this (it at least had a few moments of unintentional comedy). Even as a kid I loathed this episode.
The kid actors actually did their best with a terrible story and script. The fault is not theirs.
There's also a strange continuity error: when the demon appears for the final time, Kirk addresses it as Gorgon (also sometimes misspelled Gorgan in the script). How did he know its name, since no one had ever mentioned it any earlier in the episode?
