N: Brilliant. Outstanding. Mesmerizing. Orgasmic. A collateral composition of breathtaking cinematic magic produced in effect without reliance of computer technology. A a true architectural design of story telling that casts a horrifying reality upon us. Such masterful use of puppetry and an imaginative use of found materials create a dynamic relationship of inspiring and aw struck dramas. As we watch the drama unfold upon the stage we become so hypnotic that you cant stop watching.
With the use of stop motion animation strange doll like figures and a man are brought to life to exist in unnatural surroundings. Each character within these 13 short-timeless films endure an agonizing existence that only can be found within the labyrinths of our repressed mind. Though while we watch these puppets come alive throughout the mysterious fantasy's, we are also introduced to actors that are placed within the enigmatic sets that bring even greater depth to the uncanny stories.
Indeed, I have loved stop motion since I was younger. I even had a chance on several occasions to do some small stop motion movies. Yet I still can not believe how exceptional these short films are, which were produced by the Quay Brothers; as they take you on a thrilling journey that entraps you in the souls of the characters that come alive.
A few of my favorite shorts: Street of Crocodiles, Stille Nacht III
