Nightmare at School (2007) watch online HD

A young man who looks a bit like a figure from a Picasso painting, heads off to school. He then experiences all the stereotypical pitfalls that one dreams. Going up and down Escher stairs, trying to find his place. Standing before a class, giving a speech, totally naked. We know he is on hold because it's always 8:00 A.M. He has narrow escapes, lack of preparation. and so on. It's a surreal but satisfying animated short.

It's no masterpiece, but it tells an entertaining (though too surreal for its own good) story with nice animation.

Some of what I assume to be metaphors are far too strange to make much sense, but taken at face-value it's merely an amusing tale with good visuals. It has a very abstract style of animation, but unlike the abstract story bits, it actually works well.

It fits nicely in the "Animation Express" collection on DVD/Blu-ray, which is where I viewed it. I believe its current score of 5.5 is a bit too low, I think maybe a 6.1 is better for this one. It's perfectly fine, If mediocre.
