Cómo lo decía XD

A few items about this cartoon- The music used- When the cop chases Bimbo, you hear "Big Boot Dance" from William Henry Myddleton's 1901 composition DOWN SOUTH (An American Sketch). And when the lock eats the key and the tombstones start singing, you're listening to part of Rube Bloom's 1929 concert piece SONG OF THE BAYOU. (When the tombstones sing, "Goodbye, this is your finish", Bloom's lyrics were "Oh Lord, please take away the darkness, Oh Lord, please take away the rain...") And the rest of the cartoon parodies hit song "Sing You Sinners", a pseudo-spiritual from a long forgotten 1930 Paramount Pictures musical HONEY. About the animation- Shamus Culhane said that at the time the studio was about to start SWING YOU SINNERS, a bunch of the Fleischer's best animators broke their contracts and headed for the West Coast and Hollywood. In desperation, Dave Fleischer promoted a group of assistants and in-betweeners to animators, Culhane among them, who with Grim Natwicks guidence animated the cartoon. I've been able to identify some of the animators in SWING YOU SINNERS- Open scenes where Bimbo fights the chicken are by Grim Natwick. The cop chase is Willard Bowsky. The key eating gate and singing tombstones are Seymour Kneitel. The singing grave and the jewish ghost are Al Eugster. Bimbo stuck in the dirt and confronted with his sins are Shamus Culhane. First scenes in the haunted barn up to the scatting chicken spook, Rudolph Eggman. Scatting chicken spook, Shamus Culhane. The barn chasing Bimbo and pursuing hobgoblins, Grim Natwick. Long line of ghosts following BImbo, Rudolph Eggman. And Bimbo eaten by the skull, Grim Natwick. The rest of the animators are a guess. So far, nobody has been able to idenify the group singing and playing on the soundtrack. Some sources claim the soundtrack was a phonograph record Lou Fleischer bought at a music store. The Fleischers did use phonograph records as soundtracks- Talkartoons HOT DOG and WISE FLIES are two examples, along with BETTY BOOP M.D. But if this is true, no collector has yet found a copy of that record, so for the time being the SWING YOU SINNERS soundtrack is a mystery. And for cripes sake, people, you don't need to be stoned or drunk to use your imagination. When FANTASIA re re-released in 1970, the guys who animated on it were beseiged by eager hippies demanding to know what drugs they took while they were working on the film. Art Babbitt got so fed up being asked that question, he would reply "Yeah I was on drugs- Pepto Bismo and Ex Lax!"

Right before the frog guy pops up, you can make out "You're at the end of your rope, so just give up hope, swing you sinners!" The ghost with the noose is saying "Brotha yo sure gonna get yo face lifted!" The first ghost that appears says "You'll never rob another hen house." and the mound of dirt next to him says "You've sinned and now you must ordain." When he enters the barn I can make out "Stand up you sinner! We got you at last!" I wish I could tell more, but I'm mostly at a loss myself

And I was expecting the skull thing to be slow and dramatic. When it ate.him all abruptly and unexpectedly, it took me a minute to process it, then go "...Holy.crap."

I seen a lot of fliescher cartoons with scary ghosts before, and this one is the best. In most any cartoon they they make their scary faces, their howls, dances, and fly around. But when one's chasing you around and slashing a razor at you; thats a mean ghost.

What a great cartoon! I love all the creepy ghost and skeleton cartoons from this era, like Skeleton Dance and Mickey Mouse & the Mad Doctor. This one really stands apart for the wild imagery, you actually feel like you're going crazy yourself by the time the scatting frog shows up.

1930s cartoons: Wholesome animals singing and dancing, wacky antics, smiles... Also 1930s cartoons: 2:32

The frog rubbing himself and scatting uncontrollably really made this whole nightmare worthwhile.

Myself I always think the Fleischer Brothers animation from the 1930s always had their own idiosyncrasies and little personal touches which I've always loved and were far more surreal and bizarre and had a twisted humor unlike say the Disney films which were coming out at the same time.

David Lee Roth wrote the song " Sinners Swing ", after watching this cartoon on tv while writing lyrics for the Van Halen supersmash hit masterpiece album, " Fair Warning ", way back in 1981. History for all the wrong reasons. Trippy old cartoon

It makes a little more sense when you think about the context (this cartoon was made in the Great Depression). If you stole someone's chickens, that could mean causing them to starve. Also, if you went out for a night of gambling and came back with very little, you and your family would be in big trouble.

I swear that only the first four seconds are sane. Everything afterwards is nothing but a spree of hallucinogenic terror. It IS a very interesting and well-done animated short I have to say but it's honestly one of the scariest films I've seen!

I dunno what it is about cartoons from around this time but i enjoy them so god damn much and like i can't figure out why😂

Anyone who thinks that cartoons were always for kids should watch this first. Not only is it surreal, it's pretty friggen morbid, too. And the animation is very well done, too.

No LSD possible, but I think cocaine was involved. The scat-singing frog near the end rubs his hands all over himself - I have heard a crawling sensation on the skin can be caused by over-use of the drug, and the rubbing tries to relieve it. Also, several other Fleischer cartoons reference cocaine use. This may well be the source of some of this trippy imagery. Wild and imaginative, but grim without let-up. No getting away, no hiding under the covers, no waking up and it's all a dream, he's just ****ed.

Okay, this cartoon has nothing to do with drugs or a bad trip. This cartoon is about Bimbo( the dog in case you hadn't a clue) and how he was to be punished for his life of crime. He ran from the cop and eventually got locked inside the cemetery, where a legion of shrewd ghosts united to not only terrorize him for his life of crime and debauchery, but at some point to send him to hell for his sins. The creator of this, Fleischer Studios, was creative, and was attempting to teach children a lesson. Life is about choices, if you choose to do the wrong thing instead of the right, you shall pay for it. People should really stop assuming everything creative is about drugs. That's far from the truth. Don't come and preach that this animation is about drugs when you haven't a clue whether it's true or not. Because it's not. I'm also not Christian or Catholic so I'm not preaching about the lord, I'm just simply telling you what the cartoon was about. Thank you, for your time. Have a marvelous day!

It was also made during the great depression, when crimes like stealing chickens would be seen as far worse than it would be today

I have seen a lot of trippy-as-hell Fleisher cartoons. I'd never seen this one before. It wins the 'high octane nightmare fuel' Olympics NO CONTEST!

Thanks,Cracked.You just gave me some serious nightmares just because of this video.

I can't wait for Cuphead to come out

That's what you get for trying to steal and/or fight a chicken.

Yes, they did add stuff as they went along. Shamus Culhane writes in TALKING ANIMALS AND OTHER PEOPLE about how this cartoon got a stronger response than the Eddie Cantor feature it played with. Shamus animated the crazy stuff at the end.

Acho que quando criança assistisse isso, não dormia por anos!

2:19- the insanity begins

I have a very bad feeling I have an interpretation that makes sense of this, and makes it even darker, if you can believe that.

A good 2nd feature to this would be Van Beuren's Panicky Pup. 1930

I figured out the bit at the beginning, it's fairly close to the standard version: You sinners, drop everything Let that harmony ring Up to Heaven and sing Swing, you sinners Just wave your arms all about Let the Lord hear you shout Pour that music right out Swing, you sinners Whenever there's music The Devil kicks He don't allow music By the river Styx You're wicked and you're depraved And you've all misbehaved If you wanna be saved Swing, you sinners

This was probably made by the people of Skyrim.. If there's one thing that will get you killed, it's doing something with a chicken..

Nah, I'd say this is probably from Hyrule, this kinda batshit crazy stuff happens all the time there.

I found this from Caught a Ghost's video to their song "Time Go" .. the cartoon is really eerie put to the song. xD

I don't care how creepy the cartoon is, this song is catchy as all hell.

Haha "You're gonna get your face lifted, and a permanent shave! HA. HA. HA."

So, this is about a thief dog that is judged to be dead within a graveyard, submitted to enter into a mad mix of visions that torture him weighing on his conscience?

I love that people always blame drugs, like it’s unfathomable that people can just…be creative

This.

I love the surreal Fleischer cartoons of the early 30s.
