It kept seeming like it was juuust about to get **real** interesting, but then it never did...

I can't really say that I didn't enjoy _They Remain_, but it was definitely wierd. Weird's fine, the problem is that it never capitalises on that weirdness. Was hoping to see something more from Chidi than plain faced reactions to awkward poetry.

_Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._
