THE BENDERS~EPISODE 15 SEASON 1
| THE BENDERS~ Written by John Shiban Directed by Peter Ellis original airdate 2/14/06 Synopsis: A nice decoration for the wall. A backwoods family of hunters likes to stuff and mount their kill as trophies. Only they hunt humans. And they’ve got Sam. synopsis was pulled from the dvd Review: Most dangerous game meets a Rob Zombie film. I guess that would be the best way to describe this episode. We get another episode in a row with no real monster. The monsters again are of the human variety. A hill billy family is bored of hunting animals so they resort to the human variety. A sick family tradition passed down through the generations. Its fantastic watching Dean comment on this group of sicko’s. In this episode Dean gets sloppy and gets caught by the police for using a false identity but the lady cop has lost a family member in the same kind of circumstances, so she agrees to not lock up Dean till after it is over. The family itself is pretty lacking in the acting department said the creepy ass dad with bad teeth. Who plays the busted teeth crazy eyed leader of the group to a T. Seriously why do all crazy family’s that hunt people live in filth? They should take a page out of the most dangerous game. It can be done in style. This one was more Dean centric in the emotions category. Him breaking down about having to find his brother was fantastic. Overall this is a throwaway episode, but it makes for some entertaining laughs. I would have loved to see the hunters actually try and hunt Sam or Dean though. Favorite Quotes: He likes the remake.~ Dean to little kid about Sam liking the Godzilla remake. You really know how to have fun. Don’t you Grandma. ~ Dean to Sam on him wanting to check in early.

The good, the bad, and the Frightening. Good: THe concept of the episode was executed well. Bad: A lot of the side characters were terrible actors in this. Frightening: Old man crazy’s teeth, and crazy little girl. |
