The most unhinged cartoons of the era are the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoons at the Walter Lantz studio. While many 1930s shorts have a surreal sense of humor, the combination of loopy Bill Nolan animation and peculiar dialogue littered with non sequiturs gives these Oswalds an almost dadaist sense of audience-testing absurdity. The Phantom of the Opera parody Spooks (1930) is one of my all-time favorite cartoons because it’s so aggressively odd.

My hope is that The Cuphead Show! encourages people to seek out these wonderful and strange old films, and also inspires new artists to play around with the endless possibilities of the medium. To go out on a high note, I present the climax of the Fleischer masterpiece Bimbo’s Initiation (1931), arguably the pinnacle of rubber hose animation, in which a gang of weirdos try to recruit Bimbo into their cult. The technical skill of the animation here is staggering (look at those moving perspective shots!), and that head-scratching ending never fails to make me laugh.
