‘The Last of Us’ Episode 8 Recap: Death Becomes Her
If you are still upset about last week’s episode of The Last of Us, I have some bad news for you. This week’s episode, while a little bit less sad, is more terrifying than usual and, honestly, a little traumatizing. And it is all because of one man: David, played by Scott Shepherd. Creepy doesn’t even begin to describe this man, so consider this your warning that this episode is quite heavy, even by The Last of Us standards.
(Warning: Spoilers ahead for The Last of Us.)
We hear David (Shepard) before we see him. He’s preaching to what appear to be his followers as we get a better look at the town they all reside in. It looks a bit like Jackson, with its steakhouse and other inhabited buildings, but it is less secure and a whole hell of a lot less friendly.
