Bird Box Challenge goes Viral, Netflix Warns users against it
Netflix released Bird Box, a horror movie, in December. The holidays soon became spooky with this movie release. In this movie, everyone has to wear blindfolds all the time to prevent themselves from some killer force.
But the reality soon took a drastic turn where this Bird Box challenge went viral. The social media made this movie into a viral challenge, where users are posting their videos of blindfolds. Amidst all these happenings, Netflix is urging people to chill down a little and not to use this in their real lives.
The Netflix US has issues a warning on their Twitter channel, requesting people not to carryout this Bird box challenge and not to believe the memes.
Can’t believe I have to say this, but: PLEASE DO NOT HURT YOURSELVES WITH THIS BIRD BOX CHALLENGE. We don’t know how this started, and we appreciate the love, but Boy and Girl have just one wish for 2019 and it is that you not end up in the hospital due to memes.
— Netflix US (@netflix) January 2, 2019
Despite their warnings, people have gone blindfolded for several hours in their day to day lives. Such an irony for Netflix. The Bird Box movie became popular on Netflix all thanks to the several memes that released within the few hours of the movie release.
But these memes also contributed to the real scary and harmful blind fold challenges. Even though Netflix is nowhere responsible for the challenge that went viral over the internet, still this is a tough situation for Netflix to be in. As long as the memes were harmless, the right publicity to the Bird Box movie was amazing. But this challenge brought in a lot of negativity surrounding that.
So, even though the warnings are made, Bird Box challenge is unstoppable for some time now.
‘Christmas Eve’ – the much-talked about evangelical film based on seven true stories of people who found Jesus on Christmas Eve – is opening at NCG Cinemas in Tampa, Florida starting November 7, 2025 for a full-run of 5 showings a day.
Tampa is one of the select cities for people to see this film a year in advance.
The film team is telling people not to miss this film as it won’t be in theaters again for another year. NCG Cinemas Tampa is one of the handpicked theaters in Florida showing ‘Christmas Eve’ a year in advance.
Packed crowds have come to advance screenings around the country with the film hot off the press (production wrapped in July). As a result, only select cities will be able to view the film in advance as there is not enough time to market the film nationwide until next year.
However, the fortunate few again will see the film a year in advance before the national release next year at NCG Cinemas starting November 7, 2025.
The film is already winning many people to Christ with reports of people coming to Christ in the theaters lobbies.
“Two of my friends came to Christ,” reported a theater-goer in Honolulu. “It’s a remarkable film about people coming to Christ on Christmas Eve’. Bring your Bible study group or church as they will be beyond blessed.”
Another theater-goer in Dallas said, “I was in tears on almost every story line. It is truly the best Christmas movie ever made. All of these are true stories.”
Another theater-goer in Atlanta said, “This is the most beautiful film I’ve ever seen. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime movie about how Jesus saved seven people on Christmas Eve. Powerful and just stunning. You shouldn’t miss it at all costs.
The film stars Kevin Sorbo, Michael Irvin, Stephen Baldwin, Nzinga Imani, Eric Roberts, Jermaine Wells, Jordan Laesch, David Jofre, et al. The film is based on seven incredible true stories going from the Victorian era through World War 1 through the Civil War all the way to the present day.
‘CHRISTMAS EVE’ – Advanced tickets go on sale soon.
