In the mood for some learning? Then you should make your SPOT below for this challenge.

1 point for any documentary.

2 points for a documentary about dark subject matter.

3 points for a documentary about the horror genre.

1 bonus point for an FTV.

DVD and Blu-ray commentaries are allowed and fall under the same rules, but no FTV point.

This year, we're going to try one small change. If you want to watch a documentary that's less than 40 minutes, you can, but you only receive half the points.

Mockumentaries are also allowed, but they must be feature length.

The Documentary Challenge will begin with June and end with June.

If you need some ideas for what to watch, here's last year's progress thread https://trashepics.com/post/9/197/.

So I need some clarity. Would Trailer Park Boys count? It's a clear mockumentary, but I wasn't sure if TV shows count.

Now I'm confused. If mockumentaries count, but you don't get a point for it how does it count?

Oh nevermind I see, you're saying it's only worth 2 points. I read it wrong.

Ok, I was think of dark subject and horror as additional points not categories.

That's a shame. I hope by horror challenge we get some challengers back. Then we just need to retain them.

We need someone to get the social media back up and running and maybe spend a small amount of time and money advertising our site... *cough*

That being said, despite hating rule changes once something started, I'm open to not allowing mockumentaries that aren't feature length movies. Trailer Park Boys, The Office and What We Do in the Shadows honestly may not fit the spirit of the challenge. I do think things like Dirty Cop no Donut and Behind the Mask should count, but these objections really should have been voiced prior to the start of this.

I hadn't even thought about found footage movies. I really hate those so I won't be watching them.

Ya if it's wanted I'll remove those. I think it wasn't an issue last year because there wasn't the under 40 minute rule. That rule opens up a lot of questionable shows.

So... Deadly secrets is not considered a documentary on IMDB and it really isn't, this is a reenactment show and has big name actors like Gucci Mane's son. Nothing is really documented, it's dramatized which is kind of the opposite of a documentary.

It's neither. It's a dramatized crime drama, with actors and recreations. IMDB doesn't even include documentary on the genre section for it. Lots of things really happened, that doesn't make them documentaries, it makes them based on a true story.

Well I'll let you talk to Ballz, I don't want to put you on blast publicly, but trust me; he and I have been talking and he agrees with me.
