Disturbing Cartoons: "Cocky Cockroach"
A recent post by the great Milton Knight in an animation forum gave me the idea to make a series of posts devoted to disturbing cartoons.
Here's some disturbing screenshots from "Cocky Cockroach", a 1932 Terrytoon.
Near the end, the hero, to save his girl, kills a spider with a sword.
The sword goes right trough his heart!!
Then we can see the bloodied sword as he gets rid of the villain's body!
Enjoy ( if this can be considered a pleasure...)

And people call these cartoons boring and unexcited.

At least it was in black and white -- a color version would have really put the goriness of the gag across.
