Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
There's a dark underpinning of meanness and a lack of humanity contained within several of the short films in Short 6: Insanity. The animated "Bad Plant" and "Billy's Balloon" are both misanthropic contributions, and only "Franky Goes to Hollywood," which documents a day in the life and career of the dog who starred in Armageddon, and the Sound Bit featurette, "Beyond the Rhythm," really transcend the uncompassionate discord on display in lesser doses in the remaining seven films. "Blue City," a tinted look at the lives of four people on a collision course in the inner city, received several awards at a variety of film festivals, and "Midnight Dance," a clever Irish cartoon from John McCloskey, is on par with Tim Burton's and Edward Gorey's twisted visions. --Paula Nechak




Rating: - Shorts..But Sweets....
This review refers to "Short 6 - Insanity",DVD edition(Warner Bros)...

It never ceases to amaze me how a writer,director(often the same person), a camera man and as little as one actor can convey in just a few minutes a great story or idea. "Short 6" is a terrific example of these works and a good selection depicting a wide variety of short subject material. "Insanity" is a good subtitle for this one as the films here range from the comic to the surreal.

The films are as diverse ... Read More

Rating: - Could have been much better
To me this has been one of the most disappointing Short collections I've bought. I say that because of the others I've bought I usually love all of the short films, but of this one I LOVED Billy's Balloon, Blue City and Midnight Dance. Black Coffee was not bad, but mostly what I liked about it was one the dance songs in the soundtrack that I haven't heard since I was in high school (which wasn't that long ago). I am ashamed to admit (as a Latino woman) that the Latin-American short only inspired this ... Read More

Rating: - A Great Addition To Any Cinephiles Library
I bought this out of intrigue and I love short films. Short 6-Insanity, is high quality dvd with features galore for dvdphiles and the films are great entertainment to anyone who has a taste for the bizzare. I am especially fond of the short "Midnight Dance" which is an amazing and beautiful animated film.

Rating: - A great collection of short films!
This is a very nice collection of short films. Animation fans should find "The Bad Plant", "Billy's Balloon", and "Nocturne" especially satisfying. They are three of the best animation festival shorts of the past year.

Rating: - Agreed, wonderful films + wrong region code
I am not speaking for my own short, Black Coffee, but the other shorts on SHORT 6 are very rewarding. I must say I am very proud to be in such great company.

Regarding wrong RC. I received my copy last Friday and checked it out today. Short 6 can be played on our DVD players in Europe. So I hope Amazon changes the region code ASAP.
