Minnie the Moocher/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Nightmare Fuel: Betty and Bimbo cower in fear before a bizarre walrus/ghost/man hybrid. He dances an eerily realistic dance via the magic of Rotoscoping and sings a song about a girl running away from home and having her life ruined by drugs and bad relationships.[1] Meanwhile, the audience is treated to a whole series creepy and surreal images, such as men being electrocuted in electric chairs and ghost-kittens with empty eye sockets nursing at their mother. Betty and Bimbo eventually escape and return home, but no explanation or resolution is given for anything they just saw. You know, just your average children's musical cartoon!
  • What Do You Mean, It Wasn't Made On Drugs?: Especially as the eponymous song is riddled through with drug references. Before the Hays Code grew its claws, don't you know.
