How's it going lurkers? Today, I have a creepy, skin-crawling cartoon for you all.
Just a quick reminder, if you're an arachnophobic like I am, you will freak out watching this animated short. It's called Deadtime Stories.
Deadtime Stories was a rejected Horror Pilot by MTV. It was written by Breehn Burns and Michael Dougherty. Deadtime Stories was ~ 8-minute pilot about a girl named, Ebola.
Ebola was recently released from an insane asylum for being plagued with visions of monsters. She begins questioning if her visions are real. Ebola talks to her reflection in the mirror and learns, that her neighbors across the street are abusive to their daughter.
The protagonist's parents are dismissive of whatever she tells them because they believe she is insane.
Eventually, her mother gives her a Gingerbread Cookie and sends her to their neighbor's house to meet them. After watching Deadtime Stories, I am reeling!
I CANNOT believe that I have NEVER seen this pilot, until this morning! The fact that MTV premiered this Horror Animated Short and knew NOTHING about it is mind-blowing! I was still watching MTV in 2007.
Then again, I was also recovering from my own health scare, shortly after graduating from Carthage College in 2006.
Those, who are currently in charge of MTV, are complete dumb asses for letting go of artistic content. Had Deadtime Stories been created during the '90s, it surely would've had an audience, unlike today's era of stupidity.
When MTV is not cramming stupid, spoiled whores, that don't know anything about how to use birth control on reality shows down our throats, it's airing low browed, frat boy tomfoolery. MTV becomes a bigger disgrace by the seconds! Anyway, here is Deadtime Stories.
