 It doesn't take something to be supernatural for it to be a monster Hey guys, this is my review for benders an episode. I've very much been looking forward to this is one of the more standout filler episodes of supernatural as Obviously, they're not fighting monsters. They're just fighting hillbillies And it's kind of their take on the most dangerous game that short story as well as other sort of kind of man versus man man hunting man sort of story elements that have been used in Different stories and different shows and different movies. There's also harkens back a little bit to that hillbilly episode The inbred hillbilly episode in the X files speaking of the X files though I made a comment back in the last episode review of season one that season one would had a lot of filler in it and a Lot of not really my in driving narrative to be honest It's exactly how the first season of the X files came and now I'm starting to see the similarities Not only just because a lot of people who worked on the X files like Kim Manners and different people worked on this show But just how the narrative works. It's a very slow narrative, but they have still pretty cool if not intriguing Episode concepts with each episode whether they be story or filler by the way I also think this is filmed in Jamestown that barn look gosh darn familiar And if that is Jamestown then that's hilarious because that's where they filmed all hell breaks loose part one Season finale from season two. It's literally like you just turn the camera around and you could see the middle of the town square It's pretty funny that they can use such a small amount of space and still completely differentiated. That's if I'm correct I'm pretty certain I am so on for the benders. I like this episode one because of the just the concept I like that they fight something that's human and once Carver comes in That's pretty much the apex because everything goes downhill with the British men of letters is villains because they're pansies Other aspects of this episode. I like is the humor the scene where Dean goes into the house and fights off the brothers then gets KO'd with a piece of metal and the bang noise. I swear is something out of Looney Tunes cartoon it sounds that comical then when he wakes up and he's being tortured by the guys is Pretty funny. He has a lot of really funny lines in that scene for a scene That's talking about it having a hawk poker going in the eyeball. There's some oddly very well-placed humor in this episode There's also the idea of loss and the idea of what happens with missing persons cases There's a few people. I know who have had Relatives or people that they know go completely missing and there's no answer to it episode kind of answered the idea of What happened if you could answer those questions if you could figure out what happened to missing people Not just Sam, but the cop character in particular another actually kind of interesting thing is Granddad Hillbilly and this this guy's actually had a career for like 30 40 years prior to this episode He was a lot of side characters and a lot of big shows But he was in a lot of substantial Projects over the 70s and 80s too. So it's kind of interesting to see Almost a veteran you would say definitely in terms of length of career for sure I liked how the action was shot I did like how the concept of humanity as a villain as an entity of evil was used in this episode The humor is very good and the brother dynamic works very well in this episode despite it having Nothing to do with the main narrative They do refer back to the skin episode where Dean makes that joke that real handsome though Anyways, I'm going to give the benders a 4 out of 7. It's an enjoyable episode. It's a good episode Just the lack of narrative in this episode doesn't really help it at all as well as they beef this up Basically with Carver. I do like this episode though. Don't get me wrong. It is a good episode It's just not a great episode, but it's still a very good one And as always I asked you guys last episode what your comments thoughts likes dislikes about the benders where? And now I'm gonna read off those comments for you first one here is from Rob Hannon regular Love love love the benders. I think it is based on a short story called the most dangerous game Yes, you're correct Also, there is a scene where you can see the boom mic our mic on wheels Not sure what you call it quickly roll in and out See if you can spot it. It's in the scene where Sam's cage is talking to the other guy now Actually, I didn't see this admittedly, but I'll have to go back and try and find it now Got another one here from stew one two three another great review keep them coming The benders is great possibly the first time we see humans acting as twisted as monsters and supernatural I honestly forget every time I see it that this is season one. This is a season one episode I always think it's in the latter half of season three for some reason and finally one here from hollow man I wonder if Sam remembers this experience a lot like the benders when he desires to do things like drink demon blood He thinks yeah, I may not be human, but humans are not exactly Saints themselves At least I'm not kidnapping other people for pleasure. Maybe I'm overthinking of things a little bit No, actually, that's honestly a good idea something that is adds more to the whole idea the burden the guilt and the hate slash need to have the demon blood That Sam goes through. Thank you guys for those comments and the next episode is shadow To be honest, I actually don't remember this one, but I think I know what it is I actually like that. I'm kind of reliving through supernatural right now So this is a fun time So make sure to give me your comments about shadow what you like about it What you don't what you think stands out and just what you think about the episode in general I'll make sure to say some of those comments in the next video and once again Thank you for watching this video if you liked it leave a like and if you're interested in more Maybe subscribe and as always I'll have a playlist of the episode reviews I've done both new and old at the end of this video.
