Baba Yaga Smoked Me Out is a quirky blend of puppetry and stoner comedy that leans heavily into its offbeat charm. The pacing feels loose, allowing for both the absurdity of the premise and the heartfelt moments to breathe. You've got this heartbroken dyke at the center whose life takes a wild turn after summoning Baba Yaga with some enchanted weed. The practical effects, especially the puppet work, are really something – they have this tactile quality that CGI just can’t replicate. And the dialogue carries a sharp wit, keeping it vibrant and funny. It's a unique exploration of themes like heartbreak and self-discovery, all wrapped in a surreal package that feels fresh in a genre that often recycles itself.
This film is relatively new and still generating buzz among collectors, especially those interested in queer cinema and unique puppet work. Given its limited theatrical release and niche appeal, physical copies may become scarce as it gains a following. It’s definitely one to keep an eye on for anyone interested in the intersection of animation and adult themes, as well as those exploring contemporary takes on folklore.
