geebsTV commentary:
Luther- What the frick, show? I guess its been a while since I watched the previous seasons, but was it always this friggin scary? Its like way to drum up the suspense by taking forever to have what was obviously going to happen, happen. Like that father who killed that "internet troll". Which, I figured trolls were guys who were just dicks on message boards and forums and stuff. What kinda of scumbag defaces the webpage of some poor dead girl and then taunts her parents in all those horrible ways? But I digress, you knew something freaky was going to happen in the kitchen, and then you see him pull out the blender, and they friggin draw it out. Its like, we know he's going to destroy his hand so he will no longer have fingers to match the finger print to, just do it already so I can take my hands off my eyes! Also, that seemed like a comically absurd amount of blood in the kitchen. Like the guy should be dead or something.
And then in the end, with almost ten minutes of the guy hiding and killing that couple. Like what the shit, he's just sitting there with the blanket or veil or whatever over him, and its obviously a guy, but the husband just stares all confused! I mean, I suppose that would be incredibly confusing, like why is there a guy just sitting here in my attic, but obviously its not going to be anything good. Like yell for your wife to call the police, get in a defensive stance and be all, "Who the fuck are you?!" Don't just stand there staring like a dumb-ass! And seriously, again, we know the killer is going to pounce, but the show insists on totally stressing me out by having the guy take forever to actually pounce! Anyways, I know the ladder was in the way, but if it were me, I'd squeeze by the ladder and run, not hide in the only obvious hiding spot up there! I mean, she doesn't know what killed her husband, but it would have to be big to bash him through the roof of the house. And given the set up of the ladder, he would come down and have to raise the ladder to get by it, giving her precious seconds to run or call for help. Which, I wonder if the cops will be able to determine time of death and realize they were killed right after Luther called, and if he'll get mad or his partner will feel guilty that their argument prolly got that couple killed.
Which, again, its been a while, but I thought his partner, while not privy to the exact details of what Luther's been doing has stuck by Luther through worse. Luther getting some grieving father getting revenge on some scumbag off on reasonable doubt so he could work on the case of a real killer seems pretty tame to what he's seen Luther done in the past, so why is he all of a sudden so mad like Luther finally crossed the line. He crossed it a while ago, if his partner didn't say anything then, why say something now? Particularly in these circumstances.
Getting back to that case, I had to rewind to see if I heard that right when Luther was all, he was trying to make the first victim look like she did back then. Which confused me, because I thought the victim was in her mid-30s, not mid 40s. But sure enough, they said she was 14 back in the early 80s. But yeah, even that husband guy, he was supposed to be the lodger, which I assume meant he was maybe 18-20 at the time, he didn't seem like 50-ish! And are they implying this is that same killer? Luther was thinking the guy was in his 70s, that guy certainly didn't look 70. Was it that the previous cases were in the 70s? Because otherwise, I could believe the killer was in his 20s in the 80s, which, the guy could be 50-ish.
And Sienna Guillory is Luther's new love interest? Sure, why not? But her character seems so sweet and innocent, it just seems like something horrible will happen to her if she gets involved with Luther.
