Scared me to death! !

The first episode where the Doctor died in the crowd was already very scary. However, based on the theorem of the protagonist's immortality, the death period was changed to 200 years later. The second episode was even scarier. In the first five minutes, except that Dr. Song Jiang would definitely not die, Amy and Rory were beaten to death one after another, and Dr. was trapped in a secret room made of white dwarf matter. Are they trying to scare the fans out of a heart attack? ! !
The monsters in this episode are also scary. The props master grasped the general principles of making monsters (see various other horror movies): bare skin, wrinkled, viscous liquid; big eyes, no nose; scissor-like hands that can be extended at will. The monster's trick is a copy of a typical scene from a horror movie: everyone, the player or the audience, knows that the danger is approaching and only the person involved doesn't. There is no need to describe what happened.

The Impossible Astronaut quotes

  • The Doctor: I'm going to need a SWAT team ready to mobilise, street-level maps covering all of Florida, a pot of coffee, twelve Jammie Dodgers and a fez.

    Canton Delaware: Get him his maps.

  • River Song: When I first met the Doctor, a long, long time ago, he knew all about me. Think about that. Impressionable young girl and suddenly, this man just drops out of the sky. And he's clever and mad and wonderful, and knows every last thing about her. Imaging what that does to a girl.

    Rory Williams: I don't really have to.

    River Song: Trouble is it's all back-to-front. My past is his future. We're travelling in opposite directions. Every time we meet, I know him more, he knows me less. I live for the days when I see him, but I know that every time I do, he'll be one step further away. And the day is coming when I'll look into that man's eyes, my Doctor, and he won't have the faintest idea who I am. And I think it's going to kill me.
