Welp, looks like even a six week long Rick and Morty hiatus isn't enough to stop good ol' Justin Roiland from finding ways to disappoint me. This was really lame, with only about half of the shorts actually being decent while the other half were pretty abysmal. If I had to quickly rank and review them, it'd probably be:

1. Bet It Was Beccca - Stellar animation, super imaginative imagery and a pretty funny ending joke make this one the clear winner for me
2. An Alien Halloween - Super good, loved how fluid the animation was and the fight was really creative visually
3. Slaughter Cafe - Really liked this one, loved the Salad Finger style and the idea was super creepy
4. Rightbehindyouton - Not really all that creepy, but super funny concept and execution with some great visuals
5. Camp Lake Death - Pretty solid one, although the bit near the ending was really obvious.
6. Banana Party - Pretty middle of the road, but really liked the idea and the animation was pretty solid
7. Plopsie and Friends - Definitely a nice change of pace visually, but wasn't really that interesting and feels really lame, especially considering the fact that we just got new DHMIS content like two weeks ago.
8. The Dreston - Really loved the JoJo stuff near the end but this one just didn't have enough Halloween in it
9. Shitty Betelgeuse - A big meh, funny idea but really boring execution
10. The Creek Down the Street - Loved seeing Michael Cusack here, but this one was just really stupid.
11. Slashtronaut - Sort of cool idea, but hated the teen characters and thought the pacing was all off
12. The Killer Bathtub - Amazing animation, but the short itself was just nonsense and didn't really scream Halloween to me
13. Megahex, Devil's Night - This one was so horrible, I didn't enjoy a single joke or visual bit. Apparently its based on some pre-existing graphic novels or something, so now I know to avoid those like the plague

Besides the shorts, there are also wrap arounds featuring Justin and Zack going on a silly Halloween adventure. I was really mixed on these, as they were sometimes pretty funny and entertaining but also sometimes really annoying. Did we really need this much stupid meta talk in a Halloween special? Either way, this special was a pretty big misfire and I really can't recommend it. Hope the second half of Rick and Morty Season 6 will be better.
