The Santa Claus Happy Tyme Show (2005)
bad santa
An excellent, but twisted, puppet film. I saw this in the fall at a film festival, and enjoyed it immensely -- it's not just for holiday viewing.
Everything about this short is meticulous. The sets, puppets and art direction are all stellar. The voices are fun and the visuals are engaging.
The style of the marionettes really fits the style of the film. They're mouths don't move, but because of the voice talent and the way they are manipulated you don't really notice that their faces are static.
Here's hoping the filmmaker can sell it to television as a 30 minute special for the holiday season. Watch out Rudolph!
The Girls' Room (2000)
don't bother
bad acting, bad southern accents, inconsistent cinematography, horrible script...
I was looking forward to this film at a recent film festival and was so discouraged after seeing it. It contains quote/unquote name talent, but they do not deliver. Of course the basis for this is the uneven and uninteresting story that is told.
