What is it with animator Stephen Irwin and animal themed work? I have no idea but he can keep it up as long as he wants. The director of The Black Dog's Progress made a second appearance at Fantastic Fest this year with his Atomic Hubbub, a typically hysterical and bizarre little piece that he knocked out - at least in part - to take a break from production on the much larger Horse Glue. But that's done now, too, and Irwin has just released a seizure inducing teaser for it. Seriously, if you're epileptic don't watch this. It's madness. But it also looks to be mad genius, a glorious stew of images rendered in Irwin's signature style. This guy's one of my favorites in the world right now and you can get a taste of why below.
