Story
an unscrupulus faith healer discovers a powerful glove that turns him into a killer.
Faith Healer is directed by David Cronenberg and Written by Christina Cornish. The cursed item in this one a white Glove almost like Michael Jackson used to wear but doubt it he would touch this. The Glove has Ability to heal ailments then transfer them to someone else multiplying the illness and killing the unfortunate victim which they turn gory and gross which is pretty scary makeup effects Cronenberg did great job at making it look scary.
This is one of best episode of the series in my view and this is the most scary curse antique of the series some scenes are gory and gruesome as well this episode had a great plot as well which hold up great though the episode pretty much a great episode but a tough one for Jack as you can see at the end there if you do watch it but this episode I did enjoy a lot for being a scary episode.
scary or not
good make up effects they made kills look very nasty to look at very scary it was a good enough episode of the series to scare you a lots of fun felt like a horror movie.
Final thoughts
for years to come I remember this episode for being one of scary episodes of the series it is rated from many as one of top episodes of the series and agree it is in my view so be careful this episode is a gruesome and gory episode but if you like that this stuff will fit you well.
