Goat Story – The Old Prague Legends (2008)

dir. Jan Tománek

Goat Story is freaky. It’s just freaky. And not just because of the shoddy computer animation, which gives every character such bulging eyes and stilted movement that the visuals alone make Goat Story the stuff of nightmares. But that’s not enough – Goat Story has to push things further. It has to make the characters sing annoying songs about nothing. It has to shove in disturbing sexual innuendo and giant bouncing breasts on the main female love interest despite the fact the movie is supposed to be for kids. It has to weave in a subplot about a monk who sells his soul to the friggin’ devil. And it has to all be centred around an obnoxious talking goat. The only thing freakier than the fact that Goat Story exists is the fact that Goat Story 2 exists.
