50 States of Fright

A horror anthology series based on urban legends that takes viewers deeper into the horrors that lurk just beneath the surface of America.

Why is this only 5-8 minutes per episode and in three parts? Just do a 15-20 minute episode, Simple’s.
I was happy to learn that Quibi also gives horror a shot and if this would actually expand to 50 states it would be incredible - not that it seems realistic at the moment though (in part because of the platform but also because it is more expensive to produce)...
Like any anthology the ride is uneven and some of them actually felt too short but the production was on point so even the worst ones were at not flat-out bad
**The Golden Arm (Michigan)** - a bit underdeveloped backstory but good payoff with Evil Dead vibes.
**America's Largest Ball of Twine (Kansas)** - well done folk horror.
**Scared Stiff (Oregon)** - too short really...
**Grey Cloud Island (Minnesota)** - meh regular "modern-horror fare" [spoiler]with a twist that is obvious from the get go...[/spoiler]
**Destino (Florida)** - Alejandro Brugués X Eduardo Sánchez collab which SHOULD have made use of the portrait mode the platform provides to do something cool but instead just plays the normal found footage stick 😞.
Apparently this "pre-aired" so I hope it's going to get additional episodes soon... there were others announced in press before the release...
Basically, it's a Creepshow reboot without having to pay for the rights. And it's fine.
