Matt Roush says...The final showdown with the monstrous Vecna is getting closer, but fans will he to wait for the very last chapter on New Year’s Eve to see how this epic horror show wraps things up. A Christmas treat of three more episodes of the fifth and final season takes the heroes of Hawkins, Indiana, into new dimensions of intrigue and danger as they battle the forces of the Upside Down — although as Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) says in his latest epiphany, “This whole time, everything we he ever assumed about the Upside Down has been dead wrong.” Whatever that means. And while we’re rooting for all of the good guys to survive, let’s give three cheers for Nell Fisher as resilient little Holly Wheeler, trapped in Vecna World but never giving up.
