Luckily I guess it was within a minute or two of the end of the first chapter. Let's see if part two does the same nonsense.

About 1-2 seconds before it froze I was thinking, "wow. Hasn't skipped at all for the last hour. Maybe I'm in the clear".

So annoying.

I'm on part 4, Netflix is streaming it seamlessly.

Part two won't even play a second of the movie unless I skip 14 minutes in. Fucking bull shit.

Lucky, I've been considering cancelling it because it's been glitchy as fuck lately.

Got the movie to play, but I'm out of the mood now. Gonna finish it if it'll let me, but the desire to watch it has been ruined.

Checking out FW Murnau's The Haunted Caste. Hopefully that doesn't burn me like Hands of Orlac did.

What a fucking ordeal. Disc continuously skips throughout the entire 2 hours I've been trying to watch this movie. Barely watchable, and I mean fucking barely. I check youtube on my phone, and notice they have all 4 parts on it. I come back here to make the announcement that I am moving to the computer, and my internet cuts out.

Back on now, though. What. In. The. Fuck. Some other worldly being is absolutely fucking with me and I'm not joking about this.

Part two is picking up pretty nicely here. The acting is still lol, though.

Although I'd prefer the movie being more serious in tone, I appreciate the goofiness.

The goofiness isn't intentional, Mick Garris is just a hack :P
