Warning do not read unless seen episode.
This episode is a good episode, it's not a favorite of mine but I like is all the same. I always like stories about people making movies because I find them the most interesting and relatable as I love movie making and is my field of expertise. Also, the fact that their making a horror movie which is cool as horror is one of my favorite genres. I like the plotline which sort of feels like a "Scooby Doo" mystery.
There are a lot of good scenes, one I like is when both Alicia and Shirley have an interaction scene together in the horror film their making. Just hearing Shirley's delivery makes me wonder why the heck she didn't play the lead girl as the dialog Alicia delivers poorly feel like the kind of things Shirley would say and could nail in a heartbeat.
Alicia, I'll admit is not one of my favorite characters in the show, I always found her a little annoying. Though maybe that's the point as she literally a self-absorbed drama queen. There is one scene which I'll admit really made me feel bad for Bart as we see Alicia do too many edits and revisions on his script without consulting him just to give herself more scenes.
Just hearing Bart on the direction, he wants his story to go, I can't help but think, "why the hell didn't you direct this picture?" He clearly knows what he wants this film to be but most importantly filmmaking in general, unlike Alicia can't direct or even act worth a toss; here's a tip for you Alicia take acting and filmmaking lessons. Though one thing she says I found kind of funny "Who would want revenge on me?" I thought "You want a list?"
As for the mystery it's intriguing as usual as Shirley and Bo are trying to make sense out of the connection between the missing/destroyed tapes and the werewolf prints we see and following its trail.
There is this character in the episode that's interesting named Hype whom is sort of a performance artist/method actor whom gets a little too into the roles he plays but really like one thing he says to Alicia and I thought, yeah even he knows what will make your film better.
Though I'll admit the answer in the mystery is obvious as it has been waved right in front of us from the beginning but then again like in filmmaking it's really more the filmmaking process that maters then the end result. The only bad thing is the ending, it felt a little unsatisfying despite the result being predictable, the character Bart should of had something in the end like hearing he's entering a new film competition and directing on his own, but oh well.
When it comes to Shirley's life, who needs movies.
Rating: 3 stars
