"Superb"

Entertaining episode. I felt this episode needed a review especially when I saw the score on it. It has a couple of nifty special effects, a realistic plot and a surprise ending.

A lonely nerd likes a girl named Joan. She has a loser of a boyfriend. The guy tries to use his skills drawing to get her attention. He succeeds but the boyfriend keeps interrupting his plan and even beats him after the nerd makes fun of him in a comic strip.

Late in the night, a mysterious figure that the artists has made up in his mind comes alive. The figure who is called "The Phantom" tells the guy that he can get whatever he wants by drawing it up.

There's a couple of decent special effects like a scene where the phantom sucks the artists into his world.

The acting is decent too. This show doesn't get props for the acting but it did decent acting for a horrot show.

There is an interesting twist at the end. The latter half of the episode we see how Joan deals with what has happened to her.

I thought it was an entertaining episode to the very end.moreless
