the shots that hit me with tension are way different.

like the never ending staircase shot of the ranger tower, the shot of the dark road ahead when the dad is driving looking for the kids, when the dad looks around the hood and the empty road comes into
focus.

also, just the general tension of "satanic panic" of the early 80's that is obviously part of the narrative.

the director, saulnier, killed it which will be interesting since he and fukunaga had some bust up so he didn't stay on ALL season which was the plan. we'll see how it changes when we see the episodes other people(s) directed, which starts with episode 3.
