REVIEWS
Check out these reviews for Stoned for Christmas!
“This mixed media extravaganza manages to be wacky, poignant and sentimental all at the same time. With a steady sense of editing and sound, everything stitches together into a seamless story…”
- Max Lopez, Apartment D Films“Morgan Young crafts a wildly creative and visually dynamic experience with Stoned for Christmas…”“Stoned for Christmas is a vibrant, high-energy animation that fully embraces its concept, delivering a uniquely enjoyable holiday adventure."- New York Short Animation Festival“…a kaleidoscopic animated short that combines weed culture, queer joy, and visual experimentation in one irreverent, emotionally resonant package.”
“…community, animation, and a love for the absurd [come] together to tell a story that’s as heartfelt as it is hilarious.”- Universal Cinema“I was reminded of Vera Drew’s brilliant The People’s Joker…because they both share a kaleidoscopic approach. Whereas The People’s Joker tends towards the dark vibes of Gotham City, Stoned for Christmas ends with the hopefulness of a 60s era animated Christmas special.”
