The Necro Critic being both the show and the titular character was created by Gareth Van Camp. The Critic is a caustic yet still somehow chilly character and he's really obsessed with Animes and Horror movies plus: Everytime he's overly angry he hilariously screams into his stress-relieving cat. The show itself doesn't has that many episodes and isn't as well-known as [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment The Spoony Experiment]] or the [[WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd AVGN]]. However: It has a large underground cultfollowing fanbase.
