I think most people that click on "Who Killed Markiplier" would be familiar with Mark from his gaming playthroughs and vlogs which, while wonderfully edited, are usually very straight-forward in style and format. "Who Killed Markiplier," by contrast, has strikingly impressive ambition in production, cinematography, and execution. This is by no means your standard Youtube content.
While there are elements of the story that would be lost on viewers not familiar with more of Markiplier's work, the story as a whole is entirely capable of standing on its own merit. The scenes were beautifully shot, the editing was very well done, and while there may have occasionally been bits of scene chewing (looking at you, Chef), "Who Killed Markiplier" delivers a really enjoyable experience. It was funny, suspenseful, clever, and beautifully executed.
Ultimately, I was left with newfound respect for Mark's capabilities as an actor and creator, and with a new enthusiasm for the content he creates.
