The Green Death - Episode 2
The mine is really well done, especially with the green glow. Also very effective is the green glow on the victims' bodies, very spooky. Less effective is the CSO effect behind the lift at the mine. Very crappy. The "demonstration" parade outside Global Chemicals is a bit silly. Even sillier is the fact that the security guard calls for help to face about 6 hippies. The BOSS is introduced in this episode, and the screen with the squiggles and the voice is well done. Still no sign of any other UNIT personnel. We discover the reason why this one is always remembered as "the one with the maggots"-- the maggots. They are very icky, and impressively presented. Good cliffhanger as the Doctor and Jo are trapped in the mine with giant maggots advancing upon them... Then we get the very odd-looking end credits, where the background was flipped and run upside down. It looks very weird after being used to the regular version for so long.
