The original soundtrack for this film is missing so I added a piece of music that share's it's title.

[wickbarrow]

The mom just kinda dies and they casually let her corpse vibe there while they go elope

[ٴٴٴٴ_]

He just murdered her mother and she acts like it's no big deal

[tzeccentric]

I don’t know who’s worse here, the kids who let mom die and then hit a black kid with two cars, or the old guy who just ended the world by blowing up the moon.

For a stop motion set in the 1930s it's pretty incredible, I mean, it's so scarily beautiful.

[Ram-yxfo]

Me : creepy af
My great-grandma : that's cute

[OMM-bofr]

whoever made this must have been sniffing some serious glue.

[francescotierno]

What the hell did they think back in those days? Like: "Oh yeah, kids are gonna love those creepy-ass eyes, let's also add depressing classical music"

[stevenhulbert]

Was a film student in college, studied special effects like stop motion with Harryhausen and later Tippett. This is amazing work, interesting faces on the characters, a lot of work in these films

[LEELOLKH]

Old films are creepier than 4K Ultra films

[jestergnome]

Imagine this film is the only thing Humans leave for aliens to find.

[shibitoobscura]

I recall seeing this in theater, back in the 1930s. I had still flesh around my bones back then. Such good old days...

[tjordan]

when all my sleep paralysis demons be like "let's make a movie"

[schizophreniagaming]

Alternate title *" TWO SIMPS TRYNA SCORE ON A GRIL... FAILS MISERABLY"*

[StaffysLyfe]

I'm a very old soul and I find this absolutely beautiful..also I'm a 80s baby but love my vintage style n music💜🌹

[ishigami]

This is why our grand parents doesn't get scared they watch creepy stuff their whole childhood

[everythingispose-able]

I can't even imagine the editing nightmares having to do all this with old cameras and no computers. This is impressive as hell, despite being a vision from hell as well. I just started doing stop motion videos and it is a lot of work and time just to get a few seconds.

[jangnan]

To make this less scary for y’all, just voice dub them and make them say some funny shiz

[josephkeiper]

I've seen a lot of weird cartoons in my life, including a bunch of stop motion animation stuff & this is definitely up there on the weirdness scale! I can't believe I've never seen this…

[justfuntimedoingnothing]

Animation back then was really terrifying and sinister looking, maybe black-and-white style was not intended to look like it, but I am sure this "happy dollface" was haunting nightmares of many children who lived in middle of 20th century

[TheMinesweeps]

I think everyone is missing the point. It really isn’t creepy. Granted, the times of yesteryears with the ridicule of the black people and the Machismo nature are apparent and wrong, but let’s think about the message. The girl didn’t pay much attention to the men. She was just in her room. When she saw the men, they wanted to take her out. This was her only opportunity to escape her strict household, which she could never leave. It may have looked as if she was simply a gold digger, but really she was trying to see who had the faster car to get her out of there. The first guy was affluent, given his clothings. He was the one with the better car. After it fell in the lake, the other man trying to impress her takes her in his car to go on a date. After she thinks she’s gone far enough and tries to go to the moon, representing freedom. Her father shoots her balloon down and shoots the moon, indicating that she will never have freedom again.
