Pearce Sisters

The Pearce Sisters
"How disturbing. How grotesque. I loved it."




Luis Cook, the director of this short animation said this of it, " An amusingly bleak hearted tale of two weather lashed old spinsters. lol and edna pearce live on a remote and austere strip of coast. they scrape out a miserable existence from the sea. the pearce sisters is a tale of love, loneliness, guts, gore, nudity, violence, smoking and cups of tea."  He said that it is supposed to be the antithesis of Wallace and Gromit. -
All that said, and personal ethics aside, it is sfw- IMO

  1. If someone put together a dozen films like this (by assorted directors), and got it played in theaters-- would you go see it?

  2. No, because they're free on the web. Also, if you have cable tv with video on demand, there are dozens of artsy-fartsy feature films.

  3. Is Artsy-fartsy the same as
    Fancy-Dancy? And while we're at it, is peachy-keen the same as fine-and-dandy?

  4. "Latte."

    As in "Latte-Da".

    It makes you wonder if either of them ever found a nice man to settle down with.

  7. Strangely compelling and thoughtful, if a bit twisted and occasionally disturbing. But that's enough about your blog. I enjoyed the film, too. ;)
