Review of Calypso Cat

Calypso Cat (1962)
4/10
Usual Gene Deitch fare...
17 September 2001
I have to admit, I am not too crazy about the Gene Deitch T&J shorts. They're not as funny and somewhat disturbing. It's more watchable than some of the other Deitch-directed T&J cartoons, but it contains the usual elements; the nightmarish synthesized sound effects. At least the steel drum-playing cat that seduces Tom's crush is not that disturbing than some of the other characters.

It's better than most of the other Deitch T&J cartoons (some could really give you nightmares) but not a good T&J short overall.
