Want to See Something Creepy?

The song is "Troll Lullaby" by Jarboe, who did a variant of the song for The Path.

See the movie under the cut. Warning: While not violent in any way, it may be disturbing to sensitive viewers. As they say, "Viewer discretion is advised." Eye



This video was made from pieces of the movie Little Otik, which based off of the Czech folktale "Otesánek," in which the husband of a barren wife finds a tree stump shaped like a child. The stump comes to life, and the couple raises it. In other variants of the story, such as in the Russian fairtytale "Logboy," the child becomes a loving member of the family. In the Czech version, the child is a monster that devours everyone and everything. Long story short: Be happy with what you have!

Švankmajer's stop-motion

Švankmajer's stop-motion animation is unique.

And his other films are creepy as well. Such as his adaption of Alice in Wonderland and Faust.

When I first hears this(Bunny showed it to me who-knows-when), I fell in love with it. <3 I've wanted to use it for a character for a while, now.

...whoa. Creepy, indeed.

...whoa. Creepy, indeed. o_o;
Watched it once, and then showed it to my sister, now we are both a bit creeped out. XD
Actually, I kind of liked it though. The "rough" animation had personality in it and added to the athmosphere of the music... And there´s also something fascinating in the old, bit darker fairytales and folklores. A wonderful work, it´s quite rare and refresing to see something like this. <3
