Bite Size Halloween

I cannot, for the life of me, imagine that this series of "short stories" could have been approved for three full seasons! First the stories are _far_ too short. The commercials between episodes are LONGER then the episodes themselves!

The story descriptions are good and are actually better than the final products. There are weak to no endings! Each stand alone episode is merely an _outline_ of a story-?. Not a completed concept, but rather an incomplete and poorly conceived one at that . And who directed three seasons of this nonsense? It's a real mess of a "series". Avoid it, as life is far too short to waste on this amateur nonsense.

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.

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.

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.

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.
