For season three, the headlines will all focus on the fact that Fincher is directing an episode this time around, but there’s plenty of other reasons to get hyped about the nine new instalments, set for release on May 20th. Season two of the series brought tales of drowned giants and high-tech, assisted living communities from directors recognisable in the world of short film, such as Robert Valley ( Pear Cider and Cigarettes) and Meat Dept ( Black Holes), alongside some “bigger” names like Jennifer Yuh Nelson and Miller himself. However, when it comes to these anthologies, none whip up excitement like Love Death + Robots – the NSFW collection of animated stories presented by Tim Miller and David Fincher. Neill Blomkamp’s stable of Oats Studio shorts (which include S/W picks Rakka and Zygote) will appeal to fans of the South African director’s science fiction work, while the trio of stop-motion films that make up The Houseinclude some of the most exciting animation talent to come out of the short film arena. Featuring Oscar-winners and festival-favorites, Netflix users can enjoy a variety of short films on the the platform – our Ten Best Short films on Netflix post has some recommendations for you – with the streaming giant also investing in a number of anthology collections.
