Stampede Eats Me Up Inside

About This Movie

Stampede Eats Me Up Inside is a curious blend of animation and adolescent adventure. The film captures that chaotic energy of the Calgary Stampede in a way that feels both nostalgic and raw. The pacing is somewhat erratic, mirroring the excitement of the fair, with scenes that bounce from the dizzying heights of the Ferris Wheel to the thrill of the rides. The animation style has this rough charm, like it’s embracing imperfections—almost like a sketchbook come to life. The two boys embody that classic youthful exuberance, diving headfirst into a world of food and flirtation. It’s an exploration of freedom, friendship, and the fleeting nature of summer fun, which gives it a certain bittersweet feel.
