Really bad, even for Quay standards

Warning: Spoilers
First of all, the pretentious title "Rehearsals for Extinct Anatomies" is already vomit-inducing. This is a 14-minute short film by the Quay Twins from almost 30 years ago and as usual, it is animated and black-and-white for them. The only somewhat good thing here is the score, but the medium is film and not music, so I cannot give them really any credit for that either. I should have just listened to a record perhaps. In terms of the action we see, it's completely forgettable and obviously a failed attempt at trying to be artistic. I lost interest 2 minutes into the film. I may be a bit biased as I don't like what I have seen from the Quays so far, but this one really hits a new low I must say. Highly not recommended.
