You sure there isn't an emulator or equivalent? That's one big section of files you're missing out on if it's true. Maybe the video is in another format elsewhere, I know it was made for Channel Four television by an art college so they may have a site.

Ever since I saw The Ring, I don't like wells.

And as I type this, my cats are looking at me like they want to suck on my sweet brain juices.

That's it. I'm getting a snake.

Because you made the mistake to watch the movie with them in the same room. That gave them ideas.

Better get a dog.

Now this is a good piece of storytelling!

I've been collecting folklore for a long time and these kinds of stories kick ass.

I had this one posted in Art forum, but I realized that it could fit very well here too. So here it goes again.

Mad cat, with no hands .... yet

Why does that kid look so fucked up? He's scarier than the damn cat.

Also, I've been spending a lot of time with my dogs since seeing this.

Is it wrong that I still want to point and go; 'Kitty!' ?

I guess it can be hard to animate a human that doesn't look fucked up.

You know, that it might just be a cat that took the body parts of a dog.

There are two stories I can think of that match it, actually - one perfectly and one just thematically. Ed Gein was a real-life maniac who cut up corpses and wore their skin, organs, and what have you over his own (the inspiration for Perkins in Psycho and Leatherface in Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs). The second is pure fantasy, and involves the Inuit fable of an animal that steals body parts from humans. The book is NOT for the faint of heart, if you check the link. Inuit myths are gruesome.

There is also Invader Zim that stole kids' organs in order to appear human.

How did it get the hands in the first place?

It's folklore horror. Just accept it.

You might as well ask how the cauldron-born reanimate.

Probably the same way it got the other too. It took them from a human.

So ...

STOP PETTING YOUR CATS

They could get funny ideas.

Well, legend has it that there was an alien invader from a race known as the Irken. They are ruled by the tallest of their race, by virtue of being tallest they are most suited for the job. Anyway, a young Invader named Zim is sent to Earth to take it over. However, he appears as a child and in order to fit in, decides to steal organs so he can pass medical exams.

3D Animation, which wasn't that bad except for the freaky-looking kid.
