Every Love, Death & Robots Episode Ranked
21. The Tall Grass
There are some Love, Death & Robots episodes that fail because they don't dig into their premise enough, substituting depth for style and shock value. The Tall Grass is one of those rare exceptions that actively benefits from this recurring flaw.
Concerning a man who steps out a mysterious train for a smoke and finds himself pursued by sinister creatures, the short episode makes perfect use of its ambiguity to create a vibrantly animated tale of horror and questions unanswered.
Sure, it would have been nice to get more depth -- and for the ending to take more risks -- but The Tall Grass works as a mini-thriller all the same.
