Back in Jan. of 2020, I first became aware of the incredible work of stop-motion animator Adam Ciolfi when he sent me a link for his short Fifth (2019). I enjoyed it so much that I immediately checked out some of his earlier work and found it all amazing. The fact that this old school style of animation still exists just warms my demented heart, bringing back memories of Mad Monster Party and the likes. Now, Ciolfi has a new short done and posted, one that gives a little nod to the good old-fashioned monster movies, entitled It Came from Beyond the Drain!

First of all, I greatly urge you to give a few minutes to watch this short. Then, head over to Ciolfi’s site HERE and see all the amazing behind the scenes photos and information he has posted about his work. It impresses me even more!

THEN . . . head over to his YouTube channel by clicking HERE and check out the rest of his short films. I think you’ll find yourself being just as entertained as I was, not to mention being in awe of his talent. From the design of the characters to the insane details he puts into the sets, I can watch his stuff over and over and always find something new that I missed the first ten times!
