50 States of Fright

I did not like it that much, some scenes were pretty unrealistic for a serie releasing in 2020. But considering it is a short serie with a seemingly low budget, watchable. Stories were ehmmm welllll (?) but not much original. If you want to get scared it can be a option, but if you want something to watch that will make your jaw drop, leave here immediatelly!!

I'm not someone who is a professional movie critic. I'm just a regular person who enjoys movies. I LOVED this season and I need more!! I can't wait to see NC.

I've watched 2 of the stories (The Golden Arm and Grey Cloud Island) so far (6 episodes) and have to admit that I'm impressed. They are what they are. Lower budget anthologies. But, they're very enjoyable. Don't expect fancy/expensive special effects here. Just 'good ole' camp fire type stories. If you take it at that and don't try to compare it to Million Dollar productions, I'm sure you'll be just as impressed. I won't give any spoilers. Don't you hate it when people give away the horror plot lines? Just watch and enjoy. UPDATE: I've finished watching the rest of the series (Ball of Twine, Scared Stiff, Destino Florida) and each story was equally good. One thing to understand about these stories is that each story is broken down into multiple episodes and each episode is under 10 minutes long. So, while there are 14 episodes in this seasons showing, they make up only 5 Stories. It's a different format. But I truly enjoyed it and I look forward to next season (if this new streaming service is still around then). The season was a Solid 8 Stars!

Anthologies (which are episodic) give the viewers a short story to consume, sometimes they are Fantastic, sometimes they are only OK and sometimes they are Awful, the great things about Anthologies is that the viewers are not required to commit a large chunk of their time to determine if their time is being wasted in watching a story that is going nowhere. 50 States of Fright is sliced up into 2-4 7-8 minute segments of a story which allows the viewer the advantage of being able to decide after just 7-8 minutes whether or not they wish to invest anymore of their time or whether they have wasted enough of their time already. I do wish that each story was told in one 22-25 minute story as opposed to 2-4 7-8 minute segments as I have yet to watch a story that I did not at minimum find "decent" and some of the stories i would have loved to see a full length 2hr movie out of. IF you love anthologies (especially Horror Anthologies) then I recommend giving "50 States of fright" a chance. Again there are going to be some episodes you do not like but even the ones you don't care for, you are only investing no more then 22-30 minutes of your time. * My Personal Favorite? Minnesota - "Grey Cloud Island"

Quality horror anthology production, in the vein of the recent Creepshow anthology. Every episode was pretty strong in story and production value, only let down by the Florida episode.
