Fox's 'The Passage' just embarked on the second half of the journey through its debut season, and so far - as a fan who has been invested in the show right from the get-go - there are no complaints! Its lucid pace and simplistic storytelling technique has become its biggest selling point. What the recent and sixth episode of 'The Passage' does is put two of the most tempting elements of the plot, in a new light. The aspects we are talking about is definitely the horror quotient of the series, and simultaneously, there's a unique portrayal of Brad Wolgast and Amy Bellafonte's relationship that was unexpected but still heartwarming.

We have seen the virals turned by Project NOAH in all their superhuman monstrous glory, with pale skin, and a network of deep blue and red veins sticking out their skin, but no amount of that sinister amber glow in their eyes could compare to the image of Winston (Brett Gentile) running out in the wild like a raging maniac out on a homicidal spree. If you thought  Dr. Daniel Pet's (Alain Uy) graphic murder scene where Winston attacked him was peak treat for the quintessential gore and horror fanatic, you're in for a surprise in this new episode. We come across the disturbing mutilated corpse of the 'puppet-master' who was hunted by one of his own puppets, and things take a darker turn as the said puppet, Winston, is seen inside a cabin in the wild, feeding off a woman, who also eventually turned.
