Really? God, why didn't I see this sort of stuff when I was a kid? I would have been able to make jokes for years on this short ALONE. Seriously. Its a story about worms in your bottom. With puppets. HAND puppets.

Bizarre bit featuring a frog with no upper jaw and a rabbit talking about intestinal worms! They give a number of hints. Most espicially, don't go to the bathroom in unfamiliar places. What, were they making this film for ghetto kids? A real trip, this one.
