Hair High (2004)

Hair High is a take-off of retro high school dramas, as a mild-mannered student finds himself being tortured by the top echelon at his new school. The story is little more than a frame for a series of insane set pieces that range from flies having sex to a crazed car battle. This episodic, gag-first approach keeps one from caring much about the characters or events, but it's pretty consistently funny.Bill Plympton has a weird sense of humor, but his mix of surreal cleverness and outrageous is always lots of fun. Hair High isn't quite as good as his shorts, but it is thoroughly enjoyable.

Seriously, this animation is worse than a children's drawing. Yeah i know its meant to be different and that's good but really, they either made your head spin or give you a migraine headache. It is just terrible!I don't understand why this was given good reviews by critics and reviewers on here. Sarah Sliverman was mad for taking part in this horrible cartooonish crap. She's better off in doing better movies than being involved in this.I can't say no more because I'm blinded from the horrible drawings. I would love to give this a 0 but can't!

Such a great work.One of the best animations that I've ever watched, although the story is very common; popular guy and cheerleader go out together but a "a new kid in school" falls for this popular cheerleader.Drawings are very expressive you can almost taste the life they are living at the screen. I think this animation deserves more than just congratulations.The thing about this animation is it makes you wonder and at the same time makes you want to watch over and over again.If you haven't still watched it you may be missing a lot in my opinion.Enjoy.

This feature-length offering from Bill Plympton starts out strong, drags a little in the middle and finishes okay. It's hard to sustain the level of hilarity that the introduction carries across the length of an animated feature, from the raw characterizations to the stylish presentation. The music remains strong throughout, with toe-tapping original music presented in a well-integrated fashion with the plot.Big kids will love this. Some of it is obscenely funny and grotesque (like Mr. Snerd hacking up his entrails) and some of it is outright obscene (Zip's mad orgy in a chicken suit, but since the chicken really acts like a rooster...I guess this may be a tip of the hat to a 10% theme). Obscene, yes, but obscenely funny as well.Good style, lots of laughs and entertaining.
