According to Darlton (the producers: Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse), this week’s episode of LOST, titled “Sundown” is about the time given for the folks in the temple to surrender. Up until now, most genres have been played out in this wonderful show: the mystery, action, romance, horror, sci-fi, and now…the western. It seems the idea might be taken from the ’57 film, Decision at Sundown; either that or other similar westerns (High Noon, etc.)
It looks like MIB (Man in Black, aka Flocke: Faux Locke, aka the Lockeness Monster) and a wigged out Claire are heading for a showdown at the temple, and the other others (including Sayid, Miles, Dogan, and the rest) have until Sundown to surrender the fort.
I must apologize to all who tried to watch the live blog live. I launched the wrong event (the one that wasn’t supposed to launch until next week. All has been corrected.
