Netflix - Crime Scenes Dissapearance at the Cecil Hotel
A case study in the culture of Internet Sleuths and how people just don't have all the information needed to know the truth...and how conspiracy theories can go right down the rat hole:



EDIT: It's the Vanishing not the Dissaperance

Yeah, it's pretty nuts.

If you "liked" that, you should check out Don't **** With Cats. It's like Crime Scene to the fifth power.

How about the reverse? If I loved DFWC, which I did, will I dig this one?

First thing I thought of once the internet sleuth angle was introduced. Don't **** with cats was way better though, IMO.

They turned a 10 minute clickbait youtube video into a four part series with hours of pointless content. The whole thing could have been boiled down into one hour. I was underwhelmed.

First couple episodes were good then it fizzled into conspiracy nutters getting too much exposure.

I came away thinking less about the girl who died tragically and more about how truly ****ed the internet is making people. Imagine being that emotionally impacted by someone you've never met, then using their death to generate clicks on your conspiracy laden youtube channel.

Agreed. Which is why I called it a case study in Internet Sleuths. I also agree that this could have been probably 2 episodes instead of 4, and the last episode was complete filler and unnecessary.

But, I still enjoyed it on the whole. It's a fascinating story about the place itself, it's history and some of it's nefarious tenants. I've never heard of the place, but I guess it's quite infamous.

On the whole, preparation H feels good!

Exactly. The last hour plus was just worthless. Basically boiled down to "there was a language barrier between the maintenance guy, the hatch actually was open." Sad story, girl had bipolor, medication issues but IMO nothing warranting a 4 hour series being made about it. Wish I would have stuck to my gut feeling that that would be the outcome and bailed early.

I made it through the first episode and that was my impression as well. Seems like it was about a third useful content and two-thirds useless bullshit.

No desire to keep watching.
