Based on the information on [invalid URL removed] Who/3-4.htm,
here's a review of Doctor Who: The Massacre,
keeping in mind it's a summary of a single episode:
Story
"The Massacre" is part of a larger Doctor Who serial
and introduces the Doctor, Steven, Vicki,
and the TARDIS landing on a human colony on the
remote planet of Marbs. Peace is shattered
when a group of Cybermen, ruthless cyborgs
bent on upgrading humanity, invade the colony.
The Doctor and his companions become caught
in the crossfire as they try to understand
the Cybermen's motives and help the colonists survive.
Review (Limited Due to Single Episode Summary)
Introduction of Cybermen: This episode marks the first
appearance of the Cybermen, who would become iconic
adversaries of the Doctor. "The Massacre" sets
the stage for their ruthless nature and desire
for upgrading humanity.
Focus on Stakes: With a colony under attack,
the episode establishes high stakes right from the start,
creating tension and urgency for the characters and viewers alike.
Possible Moral Dilemma: The Cybermen's concept of upgrading
humans presents a potential moral dilemma that might
be explored further in the serial.
Overall Thoughts (Limited Scope)
"The Massacre" functions as an introduction
to a larger narrative featuring the Cybermen.
While the summary doesn't reveal much about
the Doctor's role or the resolution of the
colony's situation, it sets up an intriguing
conflict.
Would I Recommend Watching It?
For Fans of Classic Doctor Who: 6/10
(Likely worth watching especially
if you enjoy classic serials introducing
new monsters and high-stakes scenarios)
For Fans of Modern Doctor Who: Unknown
(Difficult to say without context of the
entire serial. However, the introduction
of the Cybermen might be interesting)
Here are some additional points to consider that might help you decide:
Look for reviews of the entire serial that "The Massacre"
is part of for a more complete picture.
Consider watching other classic Doctor Who stories
featuring the Cybermen to get a feel for their threat
and the classic era's style before diving into this serial.
If you can find reviews or information on the entire serial,
I can provide a more comprehensive review of "The Massacre".
