| Description |
From Road Runner to The Simpsons, animated films have always been good at finding fun in the dark and twisted. It’s easier to embrace life’s awful absurdities when we don’t have to watch them happening to real, live people (or dogs). Of course, sometimes the attraction is the spectacle an inspired animator can create: the sheer, over-the-top train-wreck momentum of things going horribly wrong — an over-protective pooch’s gauntlet of challenges in Guard Dog Global Jam or the snowballing rush to Armageddon in Enrique Wrecks the World. Lots of things go brilliantly wrong in this program of shorts — some thrilling, some unsettling, all utterly unique.
