Another obscure one
I Married A Strange Person! by Bill Plympton. Don't know who he is? Google him. If you watched MTV in the 90s you'll recognize his work.

The film itself is about as b3ta as you can get, really- very surreal, biting humor, lots of sex, bizarre violence. I won't even try to describe the plotline, as it's too weird and funny.

Side note: I've met Plympton himself. Very tall, soft-spoken, laid back, with a constant smile. An extremely nice guy, not at all what you'd expect from someone who creates the things he does...

some of his short animations and they're very good, if a little obscure.

Will have to look out for this one.

Your Face
was his first big bit of fame. If it's not on his site, look on YouTube for it.

I bought the soundtrack to The Tune, which happens to have that song on it. The song was sung by Maureen McElheron, the composer, and slowed by 1/3 to make it sound male. I've sped it back up to its original speed, and find that I like it a lot better.

Even so, if I sing that song to the Lunatic Artist in the sorta dragging style of the cartoon it invariably cracks her up...
