Let's say yous want to create a dating reality evidence in which contestants are unable to see one another's faces. This is, of form, a noble mission as it encourages individuals to move past peel-deep first impressions to engage with the very souls of their partners.

To reach this mission exercise you…
A. Just put bags over people's heads, or
B. Hire professional makeup and costume artists to turn people into the uncannily terrifying visage of wild fauna, violating the sacred laws of nature that carve up beast from human.

If you're Netflix, there's just i real reply, baby. Enter Sexy Beasts : the new dating show made up entirely of your sleep paralysis demons. Gather upward your backbone and cheque out the offset trailer below.

OK so…a couple thoughts. Showtime off, some of these creatures aren't fifty-fifty beasts. Demons are fallen angels. Dinosaurs are technically beasts but we all know that's non in keeping with the spirit of this assignment. Also, who is that blue creature and why is she so discomfitingly attractive?

The "beasts" in this trailer appear to exist, in no particular order, H2o Buffalo, Panda Conduct, Rhinoceros, Armadillo, Scarecrow, Owl, Triceratops, Beaver, Alien (or some kind of dinosaur?), Mantis, Dolphin, Demon, Fob, Mouse, Mandrill. What'southward particularly barbarous well-nigh this concept is that not merely are participants forced to wear animate being masks, but their wardrobe appears to be dictated by them likewise. Or at least I hope so – otherwise Beaver decided to wear a sweater riddled with holes on his own will.

Terrifying every bit these costumes might be, information technology cannot be denied that the production quality is stellar. Perchance Netflix had some money left over afterwards creating the hybrids on Sweet Tooth .

Equally is the case with about things, we can blame the United Kingdom for this Lovecraftian horror. Sexy Beasts comes from Lion TV's original British series that aired in 2014 on the digital platform BBC Three. The concept has proven successful plenty to be relaunched in several markets beyond the world. In light of the similarly bizarre Masked Singer 'southward success, Netflix has ordered two seasons of Sexy Beast, the first of which volition premiere with six episodes on July 21.

Comedian Rob Delaney serves as the narrator on the serial so this is a good time to remind you lot to check out his superb series Catastrophe or just follow him on Twitter for gems like this.
