Description
First and for most I must thank the late great Don Tatro,
For his unique humor, and his eternal generosity.
He gave us all so many wonderful models to play with,
including of course, Creepy the Clown.
I used Creepy, but modified his colors. School hall by me.
I did a piece some time back, about lucid dreams.'
In that piece I mentioned "Night frights" I suffered as a teenager.
This is one of the less graphic, but most disturbing of them.
This was an exercise in anger management.... ; )
Over 12 million polygons.....doe's it show?
I came pretty close to what I still see when I close my eyes....but here is a better version I can't post here:
948K version
Hope your Monday wasn't a Murphy's standard!
; )

Lay down on my couch and tell me all about it :) Truly excellent animation. The thought that you suffered from this horror in your dreams is frightening though. Unbelievable image!
Well, you should listen to Control by Traci Lords while looking at this! You have achieved a very psychadelic and frightful image here. Well done.
What a nightmare Eric... terrific work my friend... no, terrifying !
Classic wonderment !!a fabulosity of our day--killer klowns from outer space for president !!!(s) day...
Reminds me of that Steven King novel about the clown...however until now I had no fear of them at all.
OH MY GOD NO!!!! A CLOWN!!!!!!!AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Nothing creepier than an evil clown. V
I remember Creepy, but no longer have him. Is he still available?
Heheh... Nothing freakier than an evil clown! Scaled down, this would make a cool avatar.
Eric this is wild! awesome animation. I like how you have the light on and off as he levitates down the hall
A great tribute to Don Tatro, whose still biting comedy is available here under "dontatro". One of my favorites was, and still is, "Makeshift", a silent and lasting smile and true. The real nightmare, which you capture brilliantly, is that, if you subtract Jack Nicholson, contemporary school corridors are an even greater horror. Personalize your LOCKERS, kiddies, and when you GROW up, you can each PERSONALIZE A CUBICLE....
Scary clown, Scary clown, Scary clown !!!!!!! I was just discussing this with my daughter today at the doctors office , where we had to sit for 40 minutes and look at three ungodly scary clowns on the wall !! LOL ,, What is it about them thats so scary ? Must be the John Wayne Gacy thing ...LOL ... Great animation and excellent deatils on the scary clown !!~******~!!
Whoa! Shades of Steven King's "IT". Though I know that a mere movie or even book can hold no candle to night terrors, having suffered them as well. Beautiful animation, Eric. You've gotten a lot in here under the wire and it flows so smoothly. Spooky indeed, my friend. Great job!
Shades of Chucky and other twisted horror flicks...let me check, argh yes I'm CREEPED OUT NOW THANX ! bummer to hear about you affliction, have you tried Mandrax ? NO DREAMS, just sleep ! Brill mini-anim, 12 mill of ploys ? BS...if so you are really getting burned...but I know you're kidding, kool stuff ~Cheers~ :o)
Yes Jeff, believe it or not, 12 million polygons! Mostly the background, I actually modelled the locker/class room door/hallway. Repeated the lockers many many times = Arrrggh!! I know I could have done it with more smoke and mirrors....Sigh.....you live, you learn, you die and take it all with you! ; )
Most entertaining! Bravo!
thought you was talking of that movie "Night frights". I like this image and it is frighten too
Could sit and watch this all day. Clowns: always scary. Yet I have never had nightmares about them.....until now
I like that tilt you put on the camera, really adds to the mood. The lighting seems to match up pretty well as well. Now if you could get Creepy's legs to stalk through the halls you'd be batting 1000. Creepy and hypnotic, nicely done.
oh well done!! except it makes me dizzy:)
LOL a nightmare brought to life!
Excellent animation, well done!
Night terrors!!! AAargh. Me and my daughter when she was little. Screaming ladies everywhere. Dreams of lime green treacle when I was four that I can still see!!! AAah...why did you post this? lol.
yowza, that works great! Ample size, smooth... remarkable
wow Eric thats fantastic what you have created here,but I hate clowns,gives me the creeps ;)an excellent animationV
That is too creepy! love it - it doesn't get much scarier than clowns. Very Cool!
Creepy lives! (is that a good thing?) Awsome ani and tribute to Tatro. You da clown!
You are keeping busy--thank goodness. Nice and silly/scary. Wacky thumbnails help alot, don't they? (btw--i sent you those Cartoon History Links--enjoy!)
Cool work and style...excellent!!!:O)v
Whoa, that's scary! Great job with the lighting flashing by. The monotone makes it especially creepy. Very imaginative.
Agh! My eyes! Excellent work.
