Okay, wait. What did I just see? Gonna just watch that again. ok so… WOW. Everything I saw was disturbing in the best ways possible. Sentient umbilical cords, slithering, bloody tongues, stop-motion animation, and digital and computer animation, my GOD this looks bizarre. The perfect thing to watch right before bed don’t you think?
