While I like individual ideas here, the sum does not live up. It's not quite campy enough, not weird enough, not scary enough. For a relatively high concept idea zone like this, it ends up feeling unfortunately generic. It's basically a zombie zone, with rather middling energy. I think the costumes are a pretty major factor in this. I'm really not a fan of the "Green Bubble" makeup; it just isn't really that interesting or scary. It's very basic. It's also strange to reuse a decently major character design from the Major Sweets house last year as a generic monster mask.
The Bug House™ tie-in is fun, but doesn't actually amount to much. I kinda wish this zone leaned closer to the "leaked" concept from around early summer, where it was closer to Seeds of Extinction plant monsters taking over a NYC bank heist. That would give it a more interesting and imposing visual identity that this zone really lacks currently.
I appreciate that this zone uses the New York land itself as part of the theming, rather than deemphasizing it like other zones have done. The projection mapping slime is decent fun. It is also really weird and cool to see that very north-west part of the land completely dim, as opposed to every other year with multiple house entrances, tribute stores, and Rock-It zipping through.
