My friend showed me My Little Goat and I ended up watching There's A Man In The Woods and Who's Hungry again. I'm trying to find more creepy short films I watched years ago but I can't remember all of them. Can you guys post any you remember?
Creepy nostalgic animated short films
The Deep by PES (Oct 23, 2013)
That's amazing. But wow I'm so irony poisoned the fnaf ambience made me laugh on instinct.
Are you fricking kidding me?
>fnaf ambience
What? I'm not familiar with fnaf so I have no idea what the object deep sea short has to do with it
The Deep uses the same ambience the first FNAF game would use a year later.
>fnaf ambience
looks like Batman Beyond era Bruce
while animated shorts are an exception, if you like horror i recommend the entire channel.
Voice acting unironically ruins "There's a Man in the Woods"
Respect the emotion the VA (and I assume animator) puts in but damn you need a more guttural and lower pitched voice to sell that poem.
Like not even guttural, just he needs to sound like he's not young 20s kid. At the very least they could've just made it so the Principal was younger
Salad Fingers
I feel like David Firth said this isn't based on a nuclear apocalypse purely to trigger the autistic theory guy. The whole lore of the great war seems irrelevant otherwise.
I personally thought it was regular bombs instead of nukes
But everyone is mutated, probably from radiation. Regular bombs don't have radiation.
Shell shock
Like Salad Fingers has PTSD and everything he's seeing is nightmare hallucinations?
Yeah. Same goes for everyone else.
I remember showing this to my middle school class good times
Pretty obscure, but some may have seen it: Toxic, stop-motion by Andrew McEwan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni_H7ntVGf8
Are those animals real?
Cornucopia's (creator later directed Pingu) another stop-motion showcased by the 1990s Fourmations show: low res: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd8VYn76OE4v=HaOAGuUYlGE
>real
they were dead, preserved in formaldehyde - the student borrowed them from the biology department
There's an easter bunny animation with a similar vibe but I can't for the life of me find it
I find this one impressive but it also leaves me feeling very depressed.
A lot of mid-late 2000's flash stuff had that creepy vibe. People have already mentioned Firth's Saladfingers but his other toons share a similar disturbing energy, the health checks for example. For a student animation like TAMITW, I'd recommend Steadfast Stanley.
