Just Imagine!
I can almost believe that I myself, starting from scratch and given several years, might be able to handcraft the 433 parts of a 1940s phone and assemble them into a working unit.
But how could I build the billion-dollar computer-chip fabrication plant in order to create one chip or hard-drive for an iPhone?
The Trembling Veil of Bones
I can't find any info on when the full-length version of this cartoon will debut, but the trailer sure looks weird enough to intrigue me!
Window Cleaner Amuck
Remember when Daffy Duck got erased by a giant pencil? I'm sure that's the real explanation of what happened to this fellow.

16mm Theater #1
16mm Theater is my new series here on Weird Universe, in which I will share some of the stranger films in my 16mm collection. Today's feature: The Rainbow Bear, 1970The only way I can describe this film is "acid trip," and if you watch it I'm sure you will agree. Weirder still is the fact that this was apparently made for children, as it was produced by American Educational Films. And the weirdest fact about this short is that it was directed by Bill Meléndez, perhaps best known for A Charlie Brown Christmas.
Sorry about the poor quality, my projector doesn't have a telecine mode and I don't have a proper video camera.

The Musical Doctor
This is one demented video. Please note how Mae Questal, the voice of Betty Boop, is like a living incarnation of that cartoon icon.

Orange Blossoms for Violet
I don't think the Italian subtitles will stop you from enjoying this bit of monkey madness.
