This Stop-Motion Car Chase Is Adorably Violent


You’re driving along a country road at a very safe speed. You don’t want to hit any deer. And when you see one crossing the road your reflexes kick in! You slam on the breaks and stop just shy of your woodland friend. But boy would a bloody deer head hood ornament look nice.

This stop motion short by League of Buddies/Stoopid Buddy Stoodios has a surprising amount of action and even some nice pyrotechnics. Check out the making-of stills beginning at 1:37 to see the mini-camera rig plus some set design and model building.

Keep telling yourself that it’s just a movie.
