Review for 5x15 'Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid'

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid was a good, solid Supernatural episode, quiet and surprisingly introspective for a zombie horror story. Jeremy Carver’s script offered some subtle character insights and an interesting monster-of-the-week plot that cleverly tied in with the mytharc, but still kept the story deeply personal. The only real weakness of the episode was the lack of a deeper exploration of the parallels between Sam and Dean’s own history and the zombie plot, but that didn’t negatively affect my enjoyment of the episode as a whole.
