Don't Watch This

Seriously, who authorizes this crap? 3 minute "episodes" from the mind of prepubescents. Take anything you've seen before (no context, no plot, just a scene) & think of it being recreated for the Syfy channel...bad cgi, laughable dialogue, saying wtf to yourself, all that. You've got Don't Watch This.

The title of this Netflix mini-series, Don't Watch This, is at high risk of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy if one merely looks at how sloppily the horror shorts in this collection have been assembled, without a single theme to bind them. This series is undoubtedly off to a bad start with Season 1, but could still fulfill a larger purpose of becoming a solid platform for short horror films from aspiring filmmakers around the world. Within Season 1, barring Episode 2 and 3, the others have at least a semblance of a plot and are watchable. Watchable, yes... but no one's saying they are worth-watching, because there's nothing here that you haven't seen before.

It's just plain and simple BAD. It's like a film project in high school or before. Acting is bad, stories are bad, directing is bad, visuals are bad.

I've seen more content, quality and dedication on YouTube.

Only one of the five movies in the series has a story at all, and even if it is as weak as anything you could imagine. Take the title at it's face value. Don't. Watch. This.
