Meet the Creatures

About This Movie

Meet the Creatures is an animated short that's quirky in all the right ways. The story revolves around a mother who’s struggling to accept her daughter’s new unusual partner. It’s a mix of comedy, romance, and a sprinkle of science fiction—definitely not your standard fare. The pacing is brisk, keeping things lively, and Dymond’s comedic style shines through with its oddball humor. The animation itself has a slightly offbeat aesthetic that adds to the film's charm. Plus, the exploration of acceptance and the weirdness of love gives it some depth. You’ll see that distinct flavor of St. John’s comedy, where it’s funny yet a bit weird in a way that just feels refreshing.
