History WesternAnimation / MrPuzzlesWantsYouToBeLessAlive

** Jennifer's coworker had ''many'' families. [[CheatersNeverProsper It's safe to say he deserved it.]]

* AffectionateParody: This is basically the ''best'' way to the describe the short, as it's overloaded with tropes from films such as ''Film/JennifersBody'', ''Film/TexasChainsawMassacre'', ''Film/IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummer'' and ''Franchise/{{Saw}}''.

%%* BigBad: Mr. Puzzles, of course.

* NeverSayDie: Mr. Puzzles doesn't want you dead, he wants you to be "less alive" (as stated in the title).

%%* AbandonedWarehouse: The film takes place in "The Rust Factory", owned by "Rust Brothers Co."

%%* BigDamnHeroes: The Detective literally drops in on the action, though very quickly trips a [[{{Malaproper}} boobly trap]] and gets crushed by a whale. The ''army'' of whales near the end fit the bill better.

%%* FauxAffablyEvil: Mr. Puzzles ''appears'' polite, but he is pure evil.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Jennifer doesn't wear shoes, though she could just be a [[BarefootCaptives barefoot captive]]. Not enough of a runtime to get into the ''minutiae'' of it all.

----

* TheCakeIsALie: The first puzzle requires Jennifer to try and disable the chair saws with an antidote. But the fool had no idea that the antidote has been a ghost for a 100 years, murdered by a [[Film/{{Poltergeist}} Polter Geisha!]]

* AssholeVictim: Jennifer's coworker had ''many'' families. [[CheatersNeverProsper It's safe to say he deserved it.]]

* DeusExMachina: There are....just a ''wee bit too many'' here to count. Which is pretty impressive given the short's 4-minute runtime.

* MindScrew

* PsychoKnifeNut: Mr. Puzzles ''really'' likes his knife, and he ''really'' likes to stab the Consequences Button with it.
* RedShirt: The coworker is on-screen just long enough for everyone to learn that he has many families, and then gets turned into [[LudicrousGibs red coworker juice]].

'''Mr. Puzzles:''' That is wrong house. [[DisproportionateRetribution Consequences.]] ''(stabs the Consequences Button)''

* SurrealHumor: Dear god

* TheAlcoholic: The Detective is so drunk and haunted by sobriety that he can't even stand up straight for two seconds. His bullets are whisky bottles!

''Mr. Puzzles Wants You To Be Less Alive'' is a 2021 CG animated horror short-film produced and released by Creator/{{Netflix}} as part of the ''Netflix by Bots'' series, in a first-of-its-kind production: It is written entirely by a bot, with some assistance from Keaton Patti, which watched over 400,000 hours of various horror films and shows, to create the ''ultimate'' horror experience. Or that's what it says anyway... the fact it would take 200 years to make enough two-hour horror movies at a rate of a thousand per year[[note]]which was roughly the current worldwide rate around the time this film was made, but of course drops when going back in time[[/note]] to amount to 400,000 hours hints that the claim may not be so serious and Patti may have had a bit larger role in the writing, such as doing all of it as a parody of bots.

* FurryReminder: In a flashback, Jennifer ends running over [[Film/NightmareOnElmStreet an afraidy cougar]] while high on underage drugs.

The AI technology of 2021 isn't exactly as... [[ArtificialStupidity advanced]] as some would have you believe, and as a result the film is batshit crazy, a veritable horror-trope overdose, and is ''just'' [[SoBadItsGood coherent enough to be seriously funny]].
