Six Frames from Stranger Things 2: Episode 6


Spoilers

I was skeptical of this thread thread introduced in the pilot, but it fit fairly well with Eleven's search for a family. The urban environment is cliché, yes, but the director made clever use of the background text, mostly graffiti, to comment on the scenes.

1. Spiritual Isor

As we see the vengeful anger of Eleven's "sister."


2. Pawn

As we see Eleven about to be used for her powers.


3. Wicked


4. Mek

That is, meek: with great power but choosing not to exercise it, after Eleven does just that.


5. O' Bedlam

Bedlam, that is, an insane asylum, from the popular name for the Hospital of St. Mary of Bethlehem in London.


6.  Multidirectional Arrow

This image recurs and reflects Eleven being pulled in different directions, one of which is deformed.
