"Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 3" is as the title already suggests the third installment of the DHMIS animated short film series and this one is from October 2014, so it is not that old actually. Pelling and Sloan from Britain made it just like the other entries to this series that still goes on today. And they also did some of the voice acting. This third film is longer than the previous two, actually almost as long as these two taken together. In terms of the quality, I think this is the forth of these films I have seen and 2 were really really bad and one was weak and this one here joins the weak category I would say. It is once again a dark spoof of animated children's television and it deals with the subjects of love, loneliness and also a gravel eating monster. A deity? I am not sure. Anyway, the entire thing is spiced up with music that can only be categorized as creepy. I can see some creativity in here, but honestly not too much. Not to a degree where I would recommend the watch. The only reason why I am not entirely negative here is because some films from the series (think 2 and 6) are definitely worse. But number 3 gets a thumbs-down nonetheless, despite the millions of views on Youtube. Don't watch.
