So, him over at Deadpan Flook, her over at Your Daily Cartoon and probably a billion other people have been posting some of their favourite "spooky" cartoons this week. And I want a slice of that pumpkin pie for myself, so here you go (bwahahaha thunder & lightning etc).
First up is one I'd never seen until Deadpan Flook featured it, this is Ub Iwerks' Skeleton Frolic from 1937:
Next up is Bob Clampett's Jeepers Creepers (1939) starring Porky Pig - skip to 1:15 to start the cartoon!
Here's a longer one, 22 minutes of fun from Will Vinton's Claymation Comedy of Horrors (1991):
From those Fleischer nutters is the insanity of 1930's Swing You Sinners!:
Now we've Tex Avery's Who Killed Who? (1943) in which a detective's investigating a murder in a haunted house:
Dr. Seuss' Halloween Is Grinch Night (1977) by Gerald Baldwin has one of the best soundtracks EVER. For the impatient people, the fun starts at 18:27...
Whilst Sally Cruikshank's Face Like A Frog (1987) is definitely amongst the top ten cartoons EVER:
Something from Estonia now - Rein Raamat's 1983 film Hell:
Here we have Harry Forbes' The Fresh Lobster (1935) starring Billie Bletcher in a live action/cartoon crossover of madness:
Nice selection of stuff there! I'm going to save most of them until tomorrow to watch though, so as I can add them to my Halloween viewing list! ;)
