UP
ABOVE THE GODS: The superbly chilling Evil Of The Daleks, one
of only a handful occasions on which the reasons why the 'metal
meanies' sent generations of mythical viewers scurrying behind the
sofa are clearly apparent, even if it is somewhat compromised by
the silly cheapo climax. Closely followed by the reactivation scene
in Tomb Of The Cybermen; despite years of fan revisionism over the
story's merits from the "only 82% of Monty Python was any good
when you look at it imho ;)" brigade, it still looks astonishingly
effective and realistic for a low budget science fiction television
show made in 1967.
