This one has been my favourite episode of the whole series since the first time I watched it, and rewatching it after 4 years confirmed it.
Although in a serious battle with the last episode (Come Undone), and even if my love is practically the same for both episodes, this wins for 2 reasons: even if the final part of the episode is not as good and creative as the rest, the whole concept is pretty creepy for a kids show, and do it is the episode. Second reason: it's original. If you ever saw something with the same/similar plot of this episode, please tell me its title.
If I have to search some bad things in this episode, probably I would say that when the mystery is revealed, the whole explanation given by the two "bad guys" at the end is too long and reveals all the details in a really schematic way, and - most important - it's unrealistic. If all the episodes' evil characters/monsters (if not all most of them) had a pretty solid an realistic explanation/way in which they done whatever they done, this one is too unrealistic and - if I can say this - surreal.
But for a kids show, it's ok, I mean if a thing like this would happen in a more "mature" tv series THAT would be bad.
The reason why I give 9/10 to this it's because - for me - the only episode that deserve a 10/10 it's Come Undone, even if thinking about it, I love them both at the same way.

Great but could be better

This episode got me. I really enjoyed it, although some parts were fairly stupid or boring. The beginning and ending of this episode are the worst part, and the final solution for the two characters adventure is smart but I personally didn't liked it.
The whole story of 7 was interesting, and the whole Jake story was absolute fantastic, though the Finn story didn't got me until the plan scene.
This episode make me smile throughout its running time, and my vote is 8- because it's great but it could be better.
Why?

Warning: Spoilers
This movie is so bad.
Why do this movie ever happen?
The Carlos death is awful, useless and too slow in comparison to the rest of the movie, the Spencer death is something so bad that I can't use words to describe it, and I thought that it was better quit this movie, but I don't know why, I continued.
Some scenes are purely STUPID and DUMB, no silly or lazy or things like that, it's just awful and dumb.
I had a good time watching it because this isn't boring, but it has a good rhythm throughout.
This is dumb and useless.
Good

I really enjoyed the first 30 minutes, the house sequences are awesome, the birth scene is pretty disturbing and gross.
Some of the deaths are very interesting and creative, the Amanda Krueger scenes are scary, Jacob (no spoilers for who he is) is creepy as hell.
The ending is scary, gory and gross, but the whole movie is scary and gross, as a Nightmare On Elm Street should be, scary, funny and gory. (This is the most violent installament in the series).
Very suspenseful and funny.
7,5/10
