Every so often, this short comes up in my memory banks and I am glad I looked it up. I saw these movies at camp as a young lad and they blew my mind! They were on film and shown on a bed sheet while we sat around on bunk beds. I am glad I'm not the only one to remember "Bambi's Revenge!" Having now looked it up, apparently Marv Newland was not involved as I had originally thought. The action (warning: spoilers ahead, actually, spoiler ahead) takes place with Bambi's legs sticking out from under Godzilla's left foot, one leg reaches out and digs up a bundle of dynamite (why it's there is a mystery) and places it between Godzilla's toes. He then lights a match and starts the fuse which sets off the dynamite. We get a brief shot of Godzilla's startled face and then a pull back shot of Godzilla missing most of his left leg. At this point he begins, understandably, hopping around in pain. As he hops away, he becomes a hopping dot in the distance. Bambi proceeds to get up, shake the cobwebs out, and return to fully upright just in time for Godzilla to go full circle and bring down his remaining foot wherelse but right back on top of Bambi! Classic!
