Scare PewDiePie

PewDiePie is the most subscribed YouTuber of all time, but that doesn't mean that everything he makes is flawless. Although many people in the world like his content(I do honestly). But this mess of a show has gone way too far.The ENTIRE SHOW is just screaming and cursing for comedic effect, but it doesn't work. I paid to see this show, and I thought it would be ACTUALLY good since I enjoy watching PewDiePie. I really don't recommend this atrocity and it's best to skip it. I guess YouTube Red movies like "Lazer Team" and "Unicorn Island" were actually OK, so please, even if you are a fan of PewDiePie, you probably won't like the show.

If you wanna get the best from this show, I recommend watching the 1st episode and the 5th episode. The first episode is less scripted, and seems more plausible, since it looks like Felix genuinely doesn't know what's going on, and we can see his genuine reactions, which are much more attractive than his overreacted screams he fakes in other episodes. I'd love to see more stuff like that, honestly. The 5th episode parodies the horror quest games quite nicely, and it has more suspense than jump scares. I think it would've worked better if they would've focused more onto suspense, creating a creepy atmosphere and actual quests than blunt jump scares and horror clichés. And let me tell you, PewDiePie is not the best actor, so his reactions are hardly selling as plausible. And I can't really blame him, it's hard to get scared when you know that it all us just a game and all the monsters are just the actors. Speaking of actors, they are really meh and their acting is not the best. Decorations look quite cheap. I think the whole show depends on whether you like Felix and enjoy his reactions or not. It's not very interesting to watch when you know that Felix is always gonna win the game no matter what. The whole show is too obviously scripted, even the people who swear to be a part of a filming group turn out to be actors afterwards. I think I'm gonna give it a 4,5. It's a pretty mediocre show, not great, but not that terrible either.

I will only say, yes, it is fun to watch but its not way more fun then PewDiePies normal gameplaying videos. I wont say review anything stupid like storyline because that is not important here so I will only talk about the production. I actually liked the first episode til I saw that in some cases, there wasn't even a roof in the "sceneries" he went into. It was a studio which I get, yes, even though it wouldn't be hard to fit a warehouse with these things which they, kind off do later on the show, I get the fact that it might be in a studio but still, with that good sceneries, they could've made it feel better. But small things like this make you watch the show, not with a mind thinking "wow, thats so authentic" and neither thinking "this is soooo fake" but rather find yourself wondering how authentic it is, watching the show thinking "hmm, was this a genuine reaction, it seemed that way, is he still convinced its real or has he realized the "show" has started because that reaction felt fake?" or "Does he now this act is real or fake". I give it a 6 because it is fun nonetheless but has a lot of room for development. Maybe season 2?

Felix is decent, but the production itself really lacks. It feels a bit like scare tactics only not as good.. in fact I'm pretty sure I spotted a few people in it who were also in Scare Tactics. If you have youtube red then it might be worth it just to pass the time on a boring day but otherwise I would avoid it and just was his other videos.

The only things I did enjoy a little bit is when they had guest on to help Felix out.

I will also say that some of this stuff is obviously scripted, there is a portion where they have Felix talking to himself over the sound system and he responds.. there's no way it could be a "reality" show if you have pre-scripted/pre-recorded moments talking with yourself.

It's sold as a scary show, but it fails when it comes to acting, script writing and almost everything it was supposed to be. "A Scary Show". There are cameras and people everywhere while Felix pretends to be alone and confused. He screams at what seems to be low budget monsters. Sadly it's not even funny.

They make it to looks like he doesn't know what comes next, but nothing fits with it leaving us with nothing but disappointment.

That said, If Felix do something like that again but as the director, I'd watch it. He's the best entertainer youtube ever had. Any of his videos are better than this.
