General Quality: (23)

Solid technical writing.

Horror Factor: (10)

The horror just wasn’t present. While some themes came close enough to almost be neighbors, nothing about this felt particularly like actual horror. This story ran in the style of Twilight Zone storytelling. Not scary but strange.

Lyrical Interpretation: (15)

The song seemed to be used more as a plot point than a plot device.

Entertainment Value: (15)

Personally there were too many predictable tropes here for anything to really catch me off guard. The underlying message of the story was easy to decipher very early on and there wasn’t much in the way of twists or turns to surprise me. It was well written and paced smartly, so I wasn’t bored at any point, but the plot and execution was far too similar to other “technology/government dystopia” stories.

Total Score: 63/100
