Malaise is a short film that proves spaceships were cooler in the 70's

I love coming across neat things like Malaise. Daniel Beaulieu made this film as his final film project at the Vancouver Film School's 3D animation program. It has a lamprey like monster, animation quality that's sure to grab the attention of Pixar or Dreamworks, and shag carpeting in the corridors. That just proves that spaceships were way cooler in the seventies. And how can you go wrong with an homage to Alien? You can't, that's how.

  1. Like the blood bath at the end!
    Animation is excellent, especially for a student.
    Orange shag carpet - really glad that went out of style though.

  2. That's probably the only thing better in the 70s.
