WE ARE THE STRANGE, the first feature of director, editor, and animator M dot Strange could best be described as… Strange (shocked emoticon). Tirelessly handcrafted in his own self-minted style of “str8nime”, which meets somewhere between Jan Svankmajer, sneaking into the 18+ Anime section at Sam Goody, PlayStation 2 cut scenes, and Mountain Dew flavored sleepovers watching Invader Zim. These are your most intense adolescent Hot Topic OC nightmares come true.
On a quest for ice cream, outcasts Blue and eMMM the doll boy set off on an adventure to Stopmo City. Joined by the mysterious marauder Rain, our heroes soon find themselves in a battle between good and evil against the sinister HIM and his army of monsters.
