Shorts Review: The Ben Show’s Animated Crack Stories “Little Green Monsters”

Spoilers Below

Actually this week its more of a speed story where Todd tells of a story of being up for 14 days straight on the shit. Eventually, Todd would think there were little green monsters running around the house and he shot and killed one of them. However, the buckshot put a hole in his floor, so he went ahead and grabbed a jackhammer to find a factory that makes a whole bunch of these monsters all of whom start pouring out through the floor…just like the GREMLINS!

The real win here isn’t just the story. Its Ben’s questions and expressions as he is conducting the interview with Todd. Of particular interest is the ending when Ben insists that a movie Todd is referring to is either Gremlins or Gremlins 2 and if you were going to ask me I’d say the latter. That said, I love the Crack Stories as they are some of the funniest bits on TV and they are animated very well with great story-telling.
