Dad’s Dead is an incredibly creative short about the relationship between two young men who live on an estate. The narrator discusses the twisted nature of his “friend” Johnno and the things they used to get up to. Dad’s Dead feels like an experience more than just a short film due to it mixing live action with multiple styles of animation. The actual narrative is very good, and told in a clever way with it’s narrator. Although it has quite serious themes, the dark humour manages to keep the film interesting while not making the tone too grim.
