"Fear Is Real"
Posted by foonermints on 01-03-09 at 05:21 PM

So this is what I get for slumming around in the future:
»A horror-themed reality series in which 13 contestants are abandoned in the Louisiana bayou to participate in challenges designed to scare and "kill" them off one by one. In the first episode, two contestants are buried alive.«
Come to think of it, it may as well replace The Price is Right.

Can this show snuff itself after two episodes?

Please don't let this be a spinoff of Fear Factor.
I'll watch it at least once.

Wow, was THAT ever SCARY!
I hated it.
It kept reminding me of Blair Witch but with worse camera work. Do people actually get paid to write this cr@p? Who was the soundman, and why can't they just eliminate him for a canned "scream track"?
What witch kept yelling "Ryan.. RYAN!.. RYAN!? It's too close to my real name and gave me a headache.
Gawd, this is what we get in January, when many people are trapped inside and could actually use decent entertainment (YMMV). No wonder it ended with a couple of the players being buried alive.
I guess there are always reruns of Germicho.

Oooohhhhh Louisiana.....scary!
I missed that episode but am intrigued enough to try it next week.
Besides, I want some absinthe too. It’s like ouzo?

Sure is. With a little bit of the "death factor" in every sip. Don't worry about the hallucinations. Look at famous people like Baudelaire, Van Gough and Hemingway. They turned out OK, didn't they?
Well, maybe there was some paralysis and an errant ear here and there, but I bet that shotgun thing was total fiction, just like the moon landing.

On second thought, I'll just have a beer.

An hallucinogenic Drunk? I guess that involves throwing up in Technicolor.

You haven't had that much fun since the 60's.
I see that there is an "encore" tonight, following another possibly genius creation:
"Howie do it".
»A singing telegram arrives during a funeral, a dating show turns nightmarish and a waiter flounders in the premiere episode of this prank-based reality series.«
THAT one sounds so bad I'll let Estee start a thread on it.
