Watch This Fun Animated Horror Short Film SPRITE FRIGHT — GeekTyrant

Blender Studio has released a new short by Matthew Luhn (Toy Story, Ratatouille) called Sprite Fright. Don’t be fooled by the adorable looking animation, this is not a short for young or easily scared children.

You follow a group of campers working on a class project together, though only one member of the group is doing any work, Ellie. When they arrive at the campsite she is horrified when the members of her team make a mess of the campsite.

During this scene she comes across a whole civilization of little mushroom creatures called sprites, they remind me a lot of Smurfs. Watch to see what happens when Ellie’s classmates plot to capture one of the sprites to sell and get rich. It’s a pretty amazing short actually, it looks really nice and the music and voice acting is well done.

It’s perfect to watch as the spooky season comes to a close.
