Critics Consensus

Light on fresh leads but heavy on nightmare fuel imagery, Night Country's third installment finally throws Jodie Foster and Kali Reis together in a partnership that generates compelling friction.

It’s through Peter’s pestering that we get more intel into exactly what drove such a wedge between the two women.

It’s all very sharp, and continues to do an effective job of building momentum and unnerving atmosphere.

B-

Dead-ends can be as frustrating for the audience as they are for the characters, and after an hour of grinding toward zero results, Episode 3 needs to end with a bang, so to speak.

9.5/10

As a whole, the episode is just too good. It bridges gaps between characters, pulls Ennis into context, and takes a hard left into the weird in the best chilling way.

3.75/5

A tense, jam-packed hour that veers into horror territory. It’s a natural buildup from last week’s outing.

4/5

This close to the end, however, the ratcheting up of the supernatural quotient feels less exciting as having a possible real-world explanation for the deaths of both the Tsalal scientists and Annie K leaves me a bit worried.
