The Bite (2020) is an intriguing entry in the animation genre, with a distinctly grim atmosphere. It unfolds in a world that's crumbling, quite literally and metaphorically. The story kicks off with a man getting bitten on the arm—nothing too flashy, but it spirals into a series of eerie events that capture a sense of dread. The pacing's a bit uneven, reflecting the chaotic state of the world. There's a haunting quality to the visuals, and while the practical effects might not steal the show, they definitely add a layer of authenticity. The son's journey in search of food feels like a rite of passage, underscoring themes of survival and the loss of innocence. It's not your typical animation, that’s for sure.
