In a mysterious and horrifying atmosphere, the series presents a number of exciting stories that written by Stephen King, an American author. In the first season the series highlights on the life of a lawyer called Henry Deaver who has a dark past in his hometown, Castle Rock. After receiving an unknown-source call, Deaver has to go there, remembering his old past.
Castle Rock is about the temptation to forget things that hurt us, and paradoxically, the damage we do when we repress memories.This episode pays lip service to those themes. But in "Past Perfect," Castle Rock's in danger of forgetting what's important.
Continues the Stephen King-inspired show's hot streak, digging deeper than ever into the madness generated by the town's resident boogieman - The Kid - that's been infecting the locals like a virus.
This episode has such a different structure than "The Queen," paced with longer scenes and less-stylized editing. It's fun to see a show that can switch it up formally week to week and still feel consistent.
"Past Perfect" asks a lot of questions and even sets up the big reveal regarding the Kid's identity, but it also goes a little too slow at times, especially when it comes to revisiting Ruth Deaver's story, which is basically non-existent this week.
