There's a clip from the new episode up on youtube now.

Supernatural 1: Saving People, Hunting Things - the Family Business
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
And I finally figured out that Ed (the guy who explained that the first victim was absolutely, most definitely bitten by A Vampyre, and who was playing the organ later when Sam snuck up on him) was also Norman on two episodes of "Blood Ties."
Someone on my flist mentioned that Sam walks up to the Goethe Theater, which is playing Phantom of the Opera, looking for Ed.
The connection was made to Faust.

That's why he looked familiar. I miss Blood Ties. It was much better than True Blood.
I just saw Monster Movie. Of all the old film techniques used, my absolute fave is the tiny slash of light across the eyes. Love it!
My fav was the kaleidoscope like view of the bar glass to show Dean had been drugged. Heh.
I loved the kaleidoscope effect too.
Closing iris fade to black was the one I loved.
So many classics from which to choose. You could have a camera technique history lesson from this episode. Kripke? Are you doing a seminar somewhere and thought PowerPoint would be too boring?
Well, as someone who has no appreciation for classic monster flicks, I found the episode just okay, and slightly predictable. But I respect the effort. And enjoyed the scooter and pizza.
So did shapeshifter die? Or are we getting another Dracula ambiguity? ( See Buffy S6 E1.)
