I love everything about the setup for this, from the pseudo one shot format, to James Swanton (who played the monsters in Host and Broadcast Signal Intrusion), to Sam Ashurst (who is very charming as co-host of the Arrow Video podcast), to the B&W, one location thing, to shifting the story to the creature's POV... I even bought a digital copy of this about a year ago and couldn't wait to watch it.

Thing is, based on Swanton's stylized performance, the room audio, and my general oldness, I could not process anything being said because the digital download didn't have any subs.

It's free on Tubi now, with subs, so I'm going to try again...
