Youtube is being a cunt so they got rid of the English subtitles but the comments translate what little dialogue there is in there. Also here's a classic Sandman:
>Tokyo University of the Arts Wrong board. Also I'm not surprised Japs are behind something that looks like Sylvanian Families, they really do have on aesthetic, constantly mixing "cute" and implied underage rape into everything. >How come we don't see much horror animation? Horror is already niche. It makes money but not ALL the money and the only people interested in it are too into blood and guts to be tolerable to talk to.
Huh? so it's just the 3 little pigs but with goats?
Christopher Moore
It's a different fairy tale called The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats collected by the Brothers Grimm.
Chase Murphy
Man, i can never watch this again. I feel so fuckin' terrible for the big sister.
And a allegory about parent rape?
Sebastian Hughes
Is the Mother Goat in trouble with the law? She murdered a man, yes he's a criminal, but the sound of helicopters near the end implies maybe the cops are searching the area and she committed murder and kidnapping. She could lose both the human boy she forcefully adopted and her biological family. This needs a sequel.
Cameron Ortiz
As a horror fan the reason a studio dips into horror is either >They like the script >They like the guy behind the screenplay and have a deductible tax haven to exploit >They are cheap to make and already own the property so minimum investment pays off in dvd or merch sales >They are a guy that made it in the industry after a long grind and this was their pet project
Animation is expensive so that leaves us with the last one as the main drive for horror made for children to exist and maybe the second if they want to renew the ownership of something they own, we are at a time that paying c class extras to play a role and using cheap CGI in a cheap filming location is less expensive than hiring 20 Korean apes to draw a cartoon even if there's an audience
Also apparently a doujin about a Wolfman getting railed by a femboy goat, sometimes I'm amazed at what Japan can produce
Dylan Turner
Thanks for sharing OP, that was good
Having it be grade school japanese (which I understood adequately because of weeb cartoons) and grade school french (which I understand well) made it pretty distracting
Lincoln Hill
Oh hey, I loved My Little Goat. I'm glad to see it mentioned here, that animator is very talented. I'll throw my hat in by sharing this old animated short that I remember watching a long time ago. youtube.com/watch?v=Aw0uORumRts
Did Red Riding Hood also do something similar with the scissors in some versions?
Joseph Foster
Horror and animation are a terrible fucking combination and it's never scary EVER. Horror anime is always laughably bad, and horror cartoons are usually impossible to take seriously.
Horror requires a lot of grounding, and animation out of the gate removes that.
Maybe she is trying to protect the kid from the ‘wolf’?
Could be part of the metaphor.
Adrian Lopez
Steve Reviews did a video on this. Glad to see more people finding out about this short.
Charles Stewart
She's a woman user she'll be fine.
Noah Ward
Alma is well made. Good build up.
Michael Price
You're thinking of the woodcutter/woodsman who killed the wolf and/or pulled the women out of its stomach depending on version. A lot of old folk tales have recurrent themes, or rather the popular ones travelled but were changed with each retelling, like how Disney's retelling of old tales always changes things, with lately it being more dramatic and out of touch with the last version of the tale bar superficial elements (Rapunzel).
Jaxon Nelson
I was always freaked out by that animated music video where the kids go into an indoor pool and get eaten by monsters.
Lincoln Morales
That image is so stupid thats like freaking out because your leather jacket is technically made out of skin.
