Reception of "Skeleton Crew" and "Acolyte"

As someone who enjoyed both projects for what they were (though Skeleton Crew's tone/perspective is much more my jam), I've been musing over possible reasons why Skeleton Crew has had far more positive reception thus far than Acolyte.

So I ask: what do YOU like about either project? Which are you more likely to rewatch? If you like one project more than the other, why?

(If you point out something general you dislike about a project, such as "bad writing," that's fine, but please consider specifying what you think is "bad writing" - is it the pacing? Timing of plot twists/reveals? Did the witch chant ruin the entire show for you? Is the dialogue between the kids unrealistic? - that kind of thing.)

Looking forward to reading your opinions!
