I was lucky enough to this short theatrically, Run was that special type of creator that could dance on the edge and show us something new. 

Run has been most well-known for his award-winning 8 minute animated short ‘Rabbit,’ which is a wonderfully dark and disturbing animation created with old illustrations culled from British reading-scheme books for children, (though few animations could be less suitable for children!).

Humour doesn’t come much darker than this nightmarish vision of a somewhat warped pair of five-year-olds.

Unfortunately this incredible piece must now stand as a memorial to his talent as he died of cancer on Sunday at the relatively young age of 47.
