EP2: Please Remain Calm
It would be pretty much impossible to immediately match the masterpiece that is episode one, but this still proves to be a fantastic follow up. I really enjoy seeing all the lengths that went into not only trying to maintain the original disaster, but to prevent another even worse one from happening. While most of this episode is quite as horrifying to look at as the gore on display at first, it’s truly horrifying to think about that these were real decisions that had to be made.
I also want to take a quick moment to appreciate how this series has been shot so far. There has been a couple of shots in both episodes that give off beauty despite all the chaos surrounding them. Also that last sequence with the three divers had me on the edge my seat and was such a terrifying way to end the episode. 8.5/10
