SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) Here is a cartoon I had never heard of, until I watched it on YouTube. Now it is another favorite cartoon by Paul Terry.I thought the animation was great in this cartoon about a cat's trippy, hallucinating dream after sniffing catnip, when a group of mice dumped it on him. First a chair and curtains morphs into a flying elephant. Then the elephant morphs into a carpet that takes him to a palace of oriental splendor, with pretty dancing cat girls. Then things get nightmarish when he is chased by giant, demonic mice!I have nothing else to say about this cartoon, other than I love it and it's another favorite "Terrytoon."

Mark_McD The Terrytoons of this era could run a gamut from good to bad to inexplicable. This one is pretty good. It's the usual cat vs. mice scenario, with an unnamed cat who occasionally addresses the audience in an incongruous voice-over. While tormenting a house full of mice, a box of catnip falls on him from a high shelf. This cat can read the word "Catnip," but doesn't know what it is, so he takes a deep sniff of it and gets drunk, then starts having hallucinations. His trip includes a pink elephant lifted directly from "Dumbo," human-sized mice in harem girl costumes, and a descent to kitty hell. Somewhat derivative, but some of the designs and backgrounds are very well-done.
