Unedited Footage of a Bear

At some point, Adult Swim stopped funding comedies and instead began funding weird dadaist art projects with the monetary disregard of a deranged billionaire. The Eric Andre Show, On Cinema at the Cinema, and especially the Adult Swim Infomercials are playgrounds for weird people to do weird things that sometimes happen to be hilarious, and other times happen to be absurd fever-dreams. Unedited Footage of a Bear begins as unedited footage of a bear, but it doesn’t end that way. I don’t want to say anything else, because the journey is baffling and fascinating and worth every second, but suffice it to say that the sure-handed direction, great acting, wonderful use of music, and almost Lynchian depiction of suburban sprawl gone wrong signify something that can barely be called a comedy, but is incredibly funny and fascinating too, like a science fiction or horror short story that can’t help but feature every digression imaginable yet somehow still comes together as a whole.
