12 Trailers of the Weirdest Animated Films You'll Ever See

I love animated films. I grew up watching cartoons when I was kid, and my love for the medium and the art has never wavered even in my adulthood. I have watched some weird animated shows and films. Some have left me reeling, others have left me speechless, while there were others that, despite the presence of surreal or phantasmagoric elements, I found captivating, even considering the surrealism a part of its charm.

While animation is usually typecast as children's media, often not being taken seriously by most, there have been attempts at breaking the stereotype. These 12 completely delirious trailers of the most obscure animated films show exactly the boundless possibilities that animation as a medium can offer for any serious storyteller. The video above is a sample for what you should expect from these trailers. I chose it because it was the most palatable for me. Even as a lover of animation, I admit that I found myself squirming at some of these trailers because of their eeriness. But hopefully, if you think animation is just for kids, these trailers will make you think otherwise.

"Is there any animal more pointless than a guinea pig?"

I don't know, what's the point of an animal? Any animal? Including humans.

Eat. Sleep. Reproduce. Rinse. Repeat.

There is no meaning to life that I know of (except this really basic survival instinct)

Guinea pigs are not pointless. They can be trained to be very nice pets for little ones. We have had 5 of them and have really enjoyed them. They all have personalities and can teach children responsibility.

If properly trained, they don't bite, they are not skittish like a hamster or gerbil can be. They can give "kisses", and will stay by you for hours on end.

They don't run away (even if out of the cage), and I trusted my small daughter to hold & play with ours without constant supervision. They are sturdier than a hamster, they can take more handling than the smaller rodents can.

Plus they eat all of your vegetable scraps, and if you use their waste in the yard, you have great fertilizer.

Any pet can bring you joy, it just depends on your likes & dislikes.

"what’s the point of an animal? Any animal? Including humans." Well, humans have points that are fun to touch.

I mean, with the consent of the human in question, of course.
