Were the hallucinations and dismemberings your favorite parts of Euripides’ “The Bacche”?
Did you lament the lack of Dragnet-inspired anti-LSD moralism and mayhem in your Saturday morning cartoon lineup as a child?
Well, then! This animated version of the ab-surd-ly gruesome and clas-sick Eerie Publications tale BLOOD BATH may be just what you’ve been waiting for!
YOU’LL GET:
• Insane ghoul narration by Howie Pyro!
• Original Psychedelic Acid Rock by Matt Rendon!
• Creepy, trippy, hippie giggling by Lisa Petrucci!
• Ghoulish atmospheric score by Alex Cuervo!
• Giovanni Dominice channeling the ghost of Ted Knight!
• Original art by Chic Stone!
• Some v-e-r-y bad decisions from Mike Howlett and Jared R. McKinley!
• Authoritative voice work by Ravin Wong!
That’s right! 8 1/2 isn’t just everybody’s favorite Fellini film, it’s also the number of minutes that you’ll never get back when you watch this short!
Stay off the drugs, kids.
