I like horror, I like anthologies... but I don't like this show.
So this show wrote "diversity" on it's blurp thus forcing me to touch upon that. This translates into either female directed and written episodes or otherwise black/hispanic/asian guys. Similar things applies to the cast... And thereby makes a strong case against the diversity hire (note: this is not me saying skin color or ethnicity is an indication either way but this project certainly seems to be based around this).
Anyways; I know none of this "viral" fiction they are based on but they are pretty much irrelevant since what do you even make of two sentences (typically connecting a statement to something eerie/bad)... Petty really is that most of these do not work well with the 20 minute episode format. I often got the feeling that they're trying to imitate horror films they've seen but just have no clue what made them work. Budget is low with often unfitting music, lots of weird edits and acting all over the place. The cap on the length also means bland stories and very few surprises. I'd say two of them are passing at best, while others like "Little Monster" are so horrifically bad that they turn into comedy.
Not recommended...
Most of these except for two of them are so well done. I think only one of them is centered around r-pe though.
this episodic anthology series is pretty weak - lots of generic, trope filled, cliched stories that disappoint each week i watch.
There's nothing "horror" or even creepy about this show. Just 20 minutes of bad acting. It's essentially a collection of student films that star nonwhite teen actors; I can only assume that's the reason Netflix keeps renewing it because there is absolutely nothing redeeming about this show.

I actually quite enjoyed Season 1 of this show, but Season 2 is terrible. So terrible. The stories are just dull and not scary at all. I'm not sure that I would even call some episodes "horror". I can't believe this has been renewed for season 3.
