Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog
Last weekend, my cousin showed me the first act of Dr. Horrible, and I didn’t get watch the other two until tonight.
Guess what…they are all incredible.
Created by Joss Wheden (Buffy, Firefly/Serenity) and starring Neal Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillian, and Felicia Day, this is a made-for-web mini-series (each act is only 15 or so minutes) that combines the wonder of vlogging, and the underused villain perspective, with the wonderful world of musicals. The production is unbelievably tight with great performances and remarkably good music (from Joss’ composer brother Jed) and a superbly condensed story-arc.
As of this week, it is no longer available to watch for free on Hulu, but the torrent crowd won’t have a problem finding it, and the people who want to support innovative low-budget productions like this should just shell out the $3.99 to have it right in their iTunes software program.
