The Midnight Parasites (1972)

Directed by Youji Kuri

Animation | Experimental | Short

Overview

A night when parasites of various green forms devour humans. A cruel food chain that never ceases, and an eternal repetition of life and death. A grotesque and strange parable drawn by Yoji Kuri. Isao Tomita’s synthesizer music echoes quietly and eerily.

Viewing Notes

I love this one! Reminds me a little of Rene Laloux and Fantastic Planet, specifically. Lots of weird and weird creatures.
