What I really like about it is that they made it all from the perspective of the kids, so it's all exaugurated and distorted to be far more terrifying and fictional, but in a way we can relate to. Like a big scary adult, nonsense that we don't understand on the TV, feeling out of control, feeling small/helpless, not knowing what's possible to happen next, etc. It feels like it was a real horror scenario that was made worse purely in the mind of the child that experienced it.

Hey Corridor Crew! So if you guys ever had the chance to see my comment here, I just want to say that I'm so glad Eric was able to bring up the 1953 short film "The Tell-Tale Heart" since not too many people here on KZbin brings it up that often due to being an old obscure piece of animation and also I became a fan of Edgar Allan Poe ever since I first saw that short film on KZbin back in 2009 and later got interested in reading the short story version of it as it became a favorite of mine; which by the way I'm a bit surprised that none of you mentioned the fact that it was based on one of his classic horror stories as I assumed that you guys might've overlooked the opening credits since the author was mentioned in it. Either way, thanks for giving it more attention for everyone to check out...that means a lot to me! Also, about Tim Burton's short film "Vincent" and this might be a bit of a nitpick here but...that fat woman who melted in that scene (13:46-13:49) wasn't his mom since she has already been both mentioned and shown in that short film; that was actually his aunt. I'm probably gonna guess that you guys only looked at snippets of that short film but not the rest of it from the looks of it apparently. Anyways, despite being late for this since Halloween is now already over, here's a list of some of my spooky/disturbing animation suggestions for your next Halloween edition next year (if you're interested). So my suggestions would be: Disney's Education for Death (1943), Casper The Friendly Ghost (1945), "Cats, Witches and the Black Plague" segment from the 1956 The Magical World of Disney episode "The Great Cat Family", the 1956 British short film A Short Vision, the 1977 TV special Halloween Is Grinch Night, Ringing Bell (1978), the 1978 Japanese short film Pikadon, the bear fight sequence from the 1981 Disney film The Fox and the Hound, Unico in the Island of Magic (1983), The Black Cauldron (1985), The Brave Little Toaster (1987), Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night (1987), "Labyrinth Labyrinthos" segment from the 1987 anime anthology film Neo Tokyo, "Lab Animal" segment from the 1988 TV special Garfield: His 9 Lives, Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1989), the Hell dream sequence from All Dogs Go To Heaven (1989) including a deleted scene version of it, the 1990 short film The Sandman, Hexxus from FernGully: The Last Rainforest (1992), We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story (1993) including a deleted scene of Professor Screweyes' origin, the 1997 What A Cartoon! short film "Tales of Worm Paranoia", the 1998 Toonsylvania episode "Darla Doiley - Demon Doll", the 1999 What A Cartoon! short film "King Crab: Space Crustacean", the 1999 Cowboy Bebop episode "Pierrot Le Fou", the 2001 Invader Zim episode "Dark Harvest", and the 2004 Paranoia Agent episode ""The Golden Shoes"; sorry if my list was way too long to read here lol. As for my other suggestions unrelated to Halloween, I think for your next upcoming Animators React episode you should check out: Pink Floyd: The Wall (1982), Cool World (1992), Balto (1995), The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), The Prince of Egypt (1998), Titan A.E. (2000), Metropolis (2001), Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001), Paprika (2006), and Richard Williams' animated short films "The Little Island" (1958), "Circus Drawings" (2010) and "Prologue" (2015).

For a second I thought you were talking about that new anime called Sakugan, which does actually have some pretty nice art and animation, lol. But yea, I get what you mean -- particular moments or episodes where the animation quality/budget clearly skyrockets temporarily. Saitama vs Boros, Episodes 109 and 110 in DBS, etc, come to mind. I recently watched the Macross Plus movie and there was some crazy highly detailed animation moments when the YF-21 was fighting the drone (looked like they were animating on 1s -- a new drawing for every single frame) when he is dodging the missiles like crazy.

As someone raised in the UK back in the 80s, Watership Down was one of those movies we all HAD to have seen. "I don't know why they thought this was for kids" - I don't remember any of us kids being remotely traumatised by Watership down, just deeply affected, touched and saddened. It's just a brilliant story. Its great to have cartoons which teach you morals and how to treat other people and stuff, or even just scare you or make you laugh, but life is MUCH more than that, it's about pain as well, sacrifice and loss too, and you cannot protect kids from life. How do you introduce kids to truly difficult subjects? Watership Down does it amazingly well, regardless of whether the actual animation is as strong as Disney stuff but it wasn't animated by Disney, so I don't understand (unless I totally misunderstood) the whole Disney reference being made. It was a British made animation and, to be honest, it probably highlights the cultural differences of growing up in the UK to the US (particularly back then). If I recall, the film was incredibly popular and successful here in the UK, but whether that translated to the US market and whether US kids who saw it were "traumatised" I don't know. It is similar to Charlotte's Web though in the sense of not simply trying to pass on some wholesome message or moral be truly "affecting" kids, although it is much more visceral with its methods, lol. Nevertheless, I remember watching Charlotte's Web as as kid at that time too and being similarly affected at the end.

The special effects from the early German expressionist films are pretty fun. They were mentioned in this video with respect to Tim Burton, but could warrant their own video. Part of the motivation for some of the style decisions was that post WW1, they literally didn’t have enough electricity to light their sets fully. Instead they painted shadows on the set and even on actors’ faces.
It would be interesting to have an episode that focuses on stylized animations. One that comes to mind is The Triplets of Belleville. It has a style unlike most animated movies, including being a movie with almost no dialogue. The animation and music are so expressive. Another movie with an interesting style is the newest Peanuts movie (2015). They blend a 2D look with 3D animation in a really clever and unique way. There are times where Charlie Brown blushes and it looks like the colour is drawn on with crayon, similar to how the old cartoons would have looked. Little details like that make it stand out from other computer animations.
Sounds like good suggestions to me. Haven’t seen either though.

My favorite bit of animation is from Fooly Cooly (FLCL) Season 1 Episode 1 when they go into a Manga form. The commentary on the DVD talked about how difficult it was to make because instead of just drawing a manga page, they had to make the entire sequence as one LARGE page with the animations and camera movement all timed out perfectly to start and stop at the right times. It was evidently a huge pain to pull off.

The point is that much like masterful movies like 2001: A Space Odyssey are telling a story in such a way which couldn't be told in any other medium (theater, prose or even animation for that matter), you can make an animated movie that makes the most of the medium and technology that you have available.

Super excited to see Night on Bald Mountain getting the love it deserves, as well as learning some of the context of the watership down animation team-- I've always been intrigued by some of the weirder, less polished, non-disney animation that happened between the industry's various renaissances. I was absolutely one of the kids scarred by Watership when I first watched it but it is now one of my absolute favorite movies (and book!). I will say, that end fight between Woundwart and Bigwig isn't even the worst scene; the bit that gave me nightmares for years was the hallucinogenic dream sequence where they show what happened to the rabbits left behind in the old warren as it was filled in by tractors. Horrifying, but also a fascinating trip into very creative and non-representational animation. I'd love to see more of this series, particularly to hear from more animators or story boarders who can share insight on the history of the industry and different studios! :)
