Featured review
An amazing cartoon, but who will ever understand this?
I'm an one of the old Disney short film lovers, and after I saw this Donald Duck short film DUCK PIMPLES, I couldn't understand a bit, first, the title card didn't make any sense at all, GOOSE was crossed out and wrote DUCK, what in the world does that mean?
That's not more, Donald Duck was listening to a radio and scary stories repeatedly appeared and frighten Donald, his couch even turned into a green monster in his imagination! Poor him! Then he met a mysterious bookseller, who gave Donald a bunch of whodunit novels, PRETTY CREEPY!
Donald was literally enchanted by the scaring stories and the characters even jumped out, moved Donald into a semingly real crime world, it's very violence and creepy when Decetive Hennessey accused Donald the robber and ready to shot him and other scaring characters. When the commotion finally over, Donald started to wonder what else happened, or if it was just his imaginary or stuff.
Anyway, I felt like it was a shame for Disney staff members treated Donald so badly, and it's ambiguous and terrifying, not a typical Donald's short, but still ranted 8/10, less than I ranted Donald Duck and the Gorilla 9/10.
