"What happens if crazy doesn't work?"

Warning: Spoilers
Decent first entry here for a horror anthology series. Of course, I'm late to the party, having never heard of this program, running across it as an offering on one of the streaming channels. It proceeded along the lines of any number of slasher/gore type flicks one would be familiar with in the genre. The unique twist here is that the hunted became the hunter, as the back story for the protagonist Ellen (Bree Turner) depicted how her abusive husband turned her into a survivalist of some merit due to his demanding routine to prevent her from becoming a victim. Taken hostage by a disfigured back woods serial killer, Ellen recalls her training to set up a series of traps and inconveniences for the killer affectionately named Moonface (John DeSantis). The name derived from another surviving hostage at Moonface's cabin, a grizzled old timer (Angus Scrimm) who appears to have remained alive who faked being dead. Although not startlingly original, the story had enough to keep me interested to continue with the series.
