Rating: Summary: The name says it all. Review: Are you demented? Do you have a sick sense of humor? If so, you would probably really enjoy this collection of animated shorts. I had actually attended one of the Sick and Twisted animation festivals about a year ago, and I personally enjoyed the (way) off-the-wall cartoons. However, if you are thinking of purchasing this for younger viewers, think again. With such shorts as "Horndog" and "How to Make Love to a Woman" or even better, "Rick the Dick", you're looking at some very mature content that should really only be viewed by people old enough to not let the language bother them, but young enough to still appreciate jokes about flatulence and explicite animated sex (like me!). Oh yes, and do be aware of the fact that there is full-frontal nudity of both men and women characters on this DVD. Okay, that's about it. END
Rating: Summary: All the lousy animation available Review: Badly drawn, boring, slow. *not* the various collections of animations you see at film festivals. At least there's a Plympton, which is where the 1 star comes from. Two people I know shut it off. Avoid. I sure wish I had. END
Rating: Summary: Funny, in the way only cartoons can legally be. Review: Enjoy the "bitter tale" and the heart touching story "Yes there is a Santa Claus" Trust me if you're not PC you'll love it
Rating: Summary: Sick indeed Review: Generally I enjoy all kinds of animation, hardly there is a piece that I wouldn't want to see. So I bought this disc and I've been waiting for delivery with great anticipation.. I was embarrassed in the end, that's a pity. It's not the sickness that made me sad, but sickness without any idea or a single emotion, sickness solely for the sake of sickness.Still I think that this disc is worthy just for 2-3 titles that are great nevertheless. If you're a fan and just can't get enough of moving pictures, get it; after all it's not a mainstream and is different. On the second thought, such kind of "off-stream" exists thanks to the mainstream animation, it is provoked by domination of sweetness and family values on screen. But such an art doesn't have any value on its own and that made up my poor 2-star rating.
Rating: Summary: Saw in theaters Review: I saw the first 3 episodes of Spike and Mike in San Francisco at the theaters. What an experience! It was loads of fun. Even though the video does not have Scotty the Balloon eating dog chomping on a blow up girl doll, the video is great but definately not for younger viewers. I saw the festival of animation 1-3 in the Theaters and would recommend it for younger viewers. I do think some of the *fun* was lost in the tape and not having the experience of being there but it is still worth getting and hard to come by...
Rating: Summary: A bit disappointing!!! Review: I was a huge fan of the S n'T shows while I was in college. With much anticipation, I awaited the arrival of this DVD. After watching it, I immidiately put it up for auction on EBAY. I would not recommend. I have heard that vols. 1 and 2 are pretty cool. I think vols. 1 and 2 are the clips that they showed in the theatres while on tour in the early 90's.
Rating: Summary: Stupid and Unfunny Review: I was having a downright cheerful day until I watched this dvd. When I first saw the case I thought, "Hey, Spike and Mike! They've introduced some really cool stuff over the years." Unfortunately, almost none of it shows up on this dvd. The only short I can recommend in good conscience is the Bill Plympton short, How to Make Love To A Woman. If the dvd were about $2, Plympton would be worth it, but for a price [that's higher], I have to suggest avoiding it at all costs. Unless you find the prospect of various animals, vegetables and minerals defecating in many non-hilarious ways, stay far, far away.

Rating: Summary: Spike and Mike's FOA Review: If you've been to the festival in person and liked it... you will enjoy this. If you haven't but maybe a little twisted you will like it.
Rating: Summary: sick...and not funny Review: it is as said, sick, and in general I get the sense of high school crap, instead of true black humor...
