I've been mainlining Skinamarink stuff, so I was pleased to see this article. Didn't even enjoy my experience watching the film in theaters, but it had an amazing after-effect and the movie was on my mind for days and I have immensely enjoyed reading dissections and theories online. So, I've definitely turned a corner on the film. Still debating on whether I should watch it again, but I really dug the director's precursor short film, "Heck".
Definitely watch "Heck" if you can. I think it kind of sums up what Skinamarink is all about, but this explanation was stripped away in the feature-film for artistic purposes. I did have to watch it in the early morning vs. nighttime. One particular shot would've kept me paralyzed in bed, haha.

I'm kind of scared to watch "Heck" just yet. Please return with any findings!

Definitely want to see more folk drill down on the Hansel and Gretel thread. Good pointer to explore the cartoons more too!
Please tell me if you come to any conclusions!
