Here's a little more on "Grinning Evil Death"
The story involves a giant killer mutant robotic cockroach from space. The only person who can stop this menace to Earth, is a young boy! What is his weapon? Why not; the super hero ring he found in his cereal box. Yes, as a matter of fact, that is all he needs to destroy the grinning evil death. Another reason to love the inspired humor of the Liquid TV series.

You have not been keeping up... We talked about this a couple of months ago: http://www.timreynolds.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1792
Summary: A man in a dream state encounters many characters who, one by one, talk about their views on the meaning, perception, and reality of human existence. (ref: http://us.imdb.com/Title?0243017)
Plus, a guy from my class was the Art Director. Bob Sabiston has developed his own software, which was used to create the look of the Waking Life animation. I will admit, though, that some scenes were a little too wiggly/wavy for me. I didn't like "The Critic" much because of the wiggly lines around all of the characters. I like stable animation I guess. At least this movie was *supposed* to be dreamy so I tried not to dwell on it.
Bob's first animation (at least that I know of), called "Beat Dedication," featured a robot drummer. He also wrote a public service announcement on recycling for MTV (Recycle! We mean it! - The Trees) and "Grinning Evil Death" for Liquid Television. The latter is available on various animation festival videos. Not sure about the former.
He's way cool! Too bad I didn't actually ever meet him. I'll have to watch for him at future reunions, although he's probably the "too cool" type who doesn't go to those.

It's basically about dreaming. I don't know what else to say about it without giving away what plot there is. It's trippy as hell though. They took real-life footage recorded on home video cameras and used computer plugins to make it look animated. Definitely a one-of-a-kind film.

May I ask what it is about? It doesn't ring a bell by the title alone.
