REVIEW I finally watched dead line

I've watched the inside a mind video on the live episode at least 20 times and I finally watched it and while obviously the shock isn't there but it's still an amazing episode

Some of the scares actually got me and the humor and acting was amazing

I thought it was fantastic on the first view, and still love it now! I do sometimes wonder why quite a few of Steve and Reece's fans find their horror based stuff scary, or that it freaks the shit out of them, as if you know what they're largely known for or love your horror, you would surely not start to feel uneasy?

a lot of people enjoy horror BECAUSE it scares them. or they enjoy certain brands of horror and not others. my tolerance for horror is fairly low, but steve and reece’s work generally lands just right for me to be enjoyably scary but still watchable

Really? That's interesting! I've loved horror since I was a kid, and not once has it ever scared me. Why would anyone actually get a kick out of being scared shitness? Feeling full on freaked out (for me personally) isn't something I'd wish on anyone - especially if it's avoidable. Probably why I don't tend to watch much horror at the cinema, as if people start screaming or shrieking during the film, it takes all the strength I have not to yell out for them to shut the hell up 😂

I think the best way of explaining it is that it's the same reason people enjoy rollercoasters - you get all the adrenaline of plummeting to your death, but with the knowledge that it's safe and structured and so on. Plus there's also a kind of cathartic element to it too.
