GrimTrax Returns

Like a comet streaking across the sky with a trail of suffering, ennui, and industrial puncture wounds behind it, GrimTrax Returns! Five shorts too grim to release individually, including one we recorded TWO YEARS AGO and held onto for just this moment.

What kind of sicko are you: Are workplace accidents your thing? We’ve got a short that makes Shake Hands With Danger look like a Miss Rachel singalong. Or maybe you like watching a happy marriage descend into bitterness and ruin, like The Lockhorns but funny. Wanna see a railroad littered with dead kids? GOOD NEWS! Also, if you’re in the insanely specific demographic of “people who hate E.E. Cummings AND deer”, we’ve got a short that may be your grim Citizen Kane.

And then there’s one about making insanely creepy dolls out of dried apples that may just be the grimmest part of the whole experience.

Featuring grim host segments from Mike, Kevin, and Bill, GrimTrax Returns is here to make your day a wee bit grimmer and a whole lot funnier!

(Warning: It’s kinda grim…)
