Bite Size Halloween

This was.... spectacularly disappointing. Honestly, I wish I could give it zero stars. Your time would be better spent fist fighting a feral cat. I understand completely what they were trying to accomplish with this series, because it has been done before. Only it was done much better then. This is just a pathetic rewrite of previous shows with the same concept, but they try to make it even shorter in these ones to save even more money. What were they thinking when they greenlit this?? I have heard better storytelling in the exact same short span of time from homeless tweaker crack addicts, but at least that has more originality, authenticity and creativity than this show. This is pointless and worthless. Thanks for nothing Netflix.

Hard to believe that so much suspense can be packed into such a short amount of time but that's absolutely the case in this thrilling short film. Conscian dives deep into the human psyche and makes the viewers look into their own history to accept the realities of this film. Well executed, great cinematography. The quick flashes of history coupled with the sudden understanding of acknowledging the past to move on with the future hauntingly hits a chord in this suspenseful film. I'm excited to see more content made from this director as he develops his unique style and genre in horror. Great job, Conscian!

The majority of these episodes, that I've seen so far, are just bad. Some are funny. Some are just cornet. Some are a bit creepy. Some are just dumb. Then a few are like really bad commercials. Like the snickers or skittle episodes. I was expecting those episodes to end with an announcer. But if these episode were meant to be scary, they're far from it. When I started watching these I was hoping for something a bit more scary. I've been left disappointed. I'm going to continue watching because they're short enough and I hope I'll come across one that's actually more scary than creep. But if you're looking for scary, pass.

Sometimes better things can be found in small places.

Most of this stand-alone shorts are simple but surprisingly clever and well executed.

It's great that not-so known actors, directors and screenwriters can have a place to start in the showbiz.

However, you can find some acclaimed actors too, like Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts, Academy Award nominee Yalitza Aparicio, and Independent Spirit Award nominee Rachel Sennott.

I'm impressed how the directors managed to capture their ideas using the available resources considering the low budget these projects must have had.

No surprise some of these shorts have been nominated in the most important film festivals such as Sundance.

I admit I am Only 14 episodes in (at 3 min each). And hey I get it, people put time into these...I assume very new at filmmaking people. Some nice sets, fx, lighting etc totally wasted on bad stories. Feels like a 24 hour filmmaking contest to be honest. As I watch these I keep feeling like some stricture was put upon the filmmakers. Something that kept them from fulfilling their ideas/dreams. This level of consistent mediocrity can't be a coincidence. I speak as someone who has worked in tv and glum production for over 40 years...I know production difficulties and budget restraints...this ain't that.

Story first, always story first.

Oh episode 15 was clever and scary...let's hood for a better ratio as time goes on.
