Old cartoons are terrifying.


What?!

For a presentation in my film class tomorrow I've been watching cartoons from the 20's and earlier.

I took a few choice screen shots from them, so check them out on my flickr account if you'd like (click on one of the photos on this page).

This particular image is from "Dud Resolves Not to Smoke" I believe. I have no idea what "make Pittsburg look like a million dollars worth of sunshine" could possibly mean.

The early stop motion stuff is even more chilling. I actually don't really want to describe it. Just look at the photos, I suppose.

Chug!

You should look at Starawickz stuff, animated dead bugs. Well, wax models of dead bugs, fucking creepy. "revenge of a motion picture camera man' is pretty strange. Lots of movies of people watching movies of themselfs. Well, im catching up with the internet and getting drunk. I discovered the trick to not getting poor. pall malls and old style.
