Well not really. Aesthetically and in narration, this looks more from the 1910's. Maybe the clay stop motion technique itself was kind of recent. In 1930 there were already tons of great movies far beyond the static cameras, eg Chaplin's, Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich ecc and all the expressionism from the 10's and 20's, the surrealism of Bunuel and Man Ray..

The background is so surrealist, its almost like Dali done those backgrounds for this animation.

The fact that they ran over the black guy twice and didn't check to see if he was ok, says a lot about the 1930s.

The best thing about these old stop motion productions is that everything takes on an exaggerated pace and form so it creates a dream like atmosphere that will always come across as strange and intriguing.

The creepiness is more a result of the sets resembling 'Das Kabinett des Dr. Caligari' - and maybe a little bit the faces of the Bellmer-like dolls, but the animation is pretty good I think, with the wind car and all, very contemporary. 😊 Thanks for sharing.

@@sharksport01 I hadn't looked at it again until your comment, and I agree with you fully! Even the doll's eyes, face, and drawn-on clothing look Chinese. Thank you!

Chucky has nothing on these guys

I've really enjoyed discovering this channel about a month ago. I don't find this creepy, I think it's artistry.

probably some 90 year old references we aren't getting, but then again, just the level of work here was ahead of its time.

That last couple of minutes had me on the edge of my seat.

The puppets themselves are the creepy part.

reminds me of something tim burton would make

I hate how these kind of videos have titles as "bizarre", "disturbing" and "creepy" while this was not the intention of the creators.

I'm thinking "Love Pierot" that is printed on the sail is a reference to Commedia dell'Arte from the 19th century. Pierrot was always the dejected lover in the scenario who pined after the damsel Columbine, but always lost out to Harlequin. The misspelling of Pierrot was likely intentional in order to paint the characters as uneducated simpletons. Just a guess.

I'm sure, that guy was knocked over twice, only because he was a POC 😉

I truly appreciate the craftsmanship that went into this the detail is unreal. Better than everything being cgi to death movies now look like video games pitiful.

I didn't think it was creepy! I thought it was extremely interesting. As one commentor put it....more surreal than anything. A definite product of it's era but also an amazing display of early stop motion animation. I never knew anything like this existed as early as 1930. I certainly didn't think this kind of thing was possible outside of George Pal's productions in Europe and England. The fact that it's cleaned up and a bit restored with new technology makes it even more interesting. Thanks for sharing this.

What an amazing film! The creator was so far ahead of his time. I used to make clay animations when I was a kid using the family 8mm camera. I modeled clay into human figures and painstakingly moved each one frame by frame. My family loved the films. This great film made me want to upload my clay animations.

Could have been done by Tim Burton's grandfather. The animation was impressive tho.

I have the feeling this was made for that era's "modern audience"! The symbolism in it, are out-of-sight!😂

this was top of the line animation in the 1930's. what a cool piece of animation history.
