im not sure, havnt seen it. The Aeon Flux guy also did one of the Animatrix episodes. Its pretty easy to tell which one, his style is pretty unique.
i remember watching all of these great animations on MTV's Oddities, and some great little short films etc on MTV's Liquid Television. I really wish they still had it on television, i suppose they still (sometimes) have Eat Carpet etc. SBS has some pretty interesting documentaries and a lot of great films.
enjoy your The Head! its pretty hilarious. :)

Yes, that was good and aeon flux. I'd love to buy such things but I am so freaking poor right now (but I chose to be). I have 4-5 dollars a day for food. But I like the maxx better than both (then again I saw the others so long ago that I forgot how good they were). I actually found the complete maxx (it's not that long actually, just a normal movie length) used in some videostore.

"In the early 1990s MTV created an unusual TV series called Liquid Television. Liquid Television was a series of short (one- to ten-minute) "alternative" animated films which would appear between segments.
One of the shorts was Henry Sellick's Slow Bob in the Lower Dimensions, for which The Residents wrote the music."
first hit on google..

I do recall that show.
"The Head" had an alien in his...head. Literally.
Other interesting animated features of MTV's final golden days included Aeon Flux, Max (something like that), and Cartoon Sushi.

Maxx's character was designed by Simon Bisley (possibly some of the actual art too)... which automatically makes it fucking amazing.
