Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

This was split into the shorter half due to the current size of part 2.
Music by Jean Michel Jarre and Elgar, Edgar Alan Poe(?)'s poem sung by an unknown -old recording.

A differently edited version of the ENTIRE thing can be seen here:

Reviews

personally i hated the animation and i thought the sofuz guy was going to rape them or kill them in the video.

its cool and mabye even easy to do, the music goes great with it and i like the creepy theme :)

everything has been already said by NinjaShade well maybe besides a lil note: it's Edgar Alan Poe not Elgar

besides that: a really awesome style you've got there i didnt know if the guy is good or bad through the whole thing guess ill have to wait for part 2 ;p

NewShape, this is an incredible work of art. I find it hard to believe that you managed to do this entirely in Flash. Some of the camera work you did (especially in the beginning) made it feel like my perspective was being ripped away from the character even though they were still getting closer. It was a very interesting illusion.
Definitely an interesting choice in music. What inspired that decision, I wonder? I agree with Nashton. The art style IS almost creepy, but the actions of the people in the cartoon could, perhaps, be perceived as innocent if we didn't live in such a paranoid society. Coiuld you perhaps explain the symbolism behind your animation? It's rather intriguing even if this particular type of animation may be lost on a good majority of the Newgrounds community.
Ten out of ten and five out of five. And I would be interested to know what exactly was going through your mind at the time of animating this. Thank you for gracing the sight with above decent work.

P.S. A disclaimer: Kids, never get in the back of a creepy Sofuz truck that says they'll take you to a special camp. You just don't do it.

creepy yes good yes....
