Mortys

by V. L. Craven

Do yourself a favour and maximise this one as big as your screen will allow. Everything about it should be enjoyed at full size.

Mortys is a French animation about Death (if Tim Burton designed Morticia Addams this is probably what she’d look like) who has a young son. Being Death, though, she’s quite busy and doesn’t spend much time with the boy, so he gets a computer that can help streamline the system. And it does. A bit better than planned.

The animation is gorgeous, the script is amusing (I laughed out loud), and the soundtrack is a perfect compliment.

Dji Death Fails

by V. L. Craven

You know those days where you seem you have woken up in a slapstick comedy-you’re tripping over your own feet, stepping on rakes and bashing yourself in the face with the handles-that sort of thing? Well, even Death has days like that. Dji Death Fails tells the story of one of those days. The poor being only wants to reap one soul. One!
