Creepy Rigatoni: Channel Zero, Candle Cove- Episode 5

Another week and another crazy trip to America's 2nd favorite crazy Town...
Mike is experiencing some strange side effects the longer he stays in Town.  Why is he growing that tooth in his...oh crap, his dead Twin had one.
After the death of another person in Town, the search is on for a Teacher.  They find that she is deeply-connected to the Candle Cove Show...but not quite in the way that you might think.
More kids go missing as things seem to be building to something big.  Always watch your back in this Town!
Oh man- this guy again!  He is back and you know that he is up to no good.

How will this all end?  No SPOILERS (for you or me).
Another dose of weird and creepy.  Yet again, the formula works.  People do a mix of big and small Acting that makes both stand out.  The whole thing has a soft, simple look that doesn't lead you to expect all the murder and mayhem.  It manages to be both creepy, slow and interesting.  Since we're near the end, things have obviously picked up.  Even so, this will never be confused with a more standard Horror TV Show that has to deliver regular moments of shock and craziness.  This is more about filling you with unease.  Learning more about Candle Cove and seeing the effect it can have is quite creepy.  The big moments are still played with a certain amount of creepy silence.  No big upswing in the Score or loud Music Cues like other Shows.  Candle Cove continues to be a surprise success for Syfy.  I'll be sorry to see it end (this Arc, that is).  Hey, how did my collection make it into the Show?
Next time, the Season/Series Finale.  Who will survive and how many teeth will be left?  See you then...
