This film manages to be both unsettling and endearing in its content and the treatment thereof. The choice of medium (musical) counterpoints brilliantly the well executed gross-out material and gives the characters and idea of the film a great deal more depth.

The music and lyrics are memorable and well written, to the extent that this viewer is able to recall them vividly despite having viewed the film only once and some weeks ago at that.

I have no qualms admitting that this film very quickly brought a huge grin to my face, which it was capably able to maintain throughout its length. Recommended for fans of short, sharp, clever films with excellent gross-out potential.

This game has some pretty serious technical flaws. The character animations are simple loops, which often don't loop smoothly. The frame rate is low in all the animations except Lewton's, and the characters have a tendency to snap back to their static frame when they're not talking. But I like it.

The game's plot transcends all these technical flaws to make for quite a pleasant experience, with definite addiction factor ;) The film noir style is great, and works surprisingly well with the Ankh Morpork atmosphere.

Some fiendish puzzles, the odd bit of screen sweeping, and a very neat twist at the end. Recommended for Discworld fans. Others might find it just a little too tedious.
