Bite Size Halloween

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!

Some of the episodes are good, some of them are not... but overall most of them are pretty decent, especially, considering their low budget in most of the cases.

Even though horror projects nowadays might fall in very well known clichés, most of the episodes have actually very good and innovative ideas, with a bigger budget Bite Size Halloween could have been the horror equivalent of Black Mirror.

The actors in general deliver good performances, there are just a couple of episodes where they were totally miscast, but since in most of the cases they are new actors with few or non experience I think I can forgive that.

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.

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.
