To Melt the Devil


'Fritz the Cat' meets 'The Devil and Daniel Mouse' meets 'Heavy Metal'

I was astounded at the level of animation and love that went into this film. I can't even believe that I had never heard of it before watching it now in 2016 (on youtube, which btw just sold a dvd copy of this film, by letting me see it and discover it via youtube. wink, wink).
It is absolutely 80's "retrotastic", with the soul of 'Fritz the Cat', the story and animation of 'The Devil and Daniel Mouse' and the atmosphere of 'Heavy Metal'. Anyone who loves the 80's and the animation it brought, of the likes of, Don Bluth, Ralph Bakshi and the team of animators from 'Heavy Metal' and the Nelvana animation production house, will love this film.
Also, with Don Francks (Dr. Claw on Inspector Gadget 1983) as Mok; and Lou Reed as the singing voice in "My name is Mok", is freaking awesome.
Cheap Trick also played many of the heavy tracks of the film which seals the deal with this film's immortality, and makes it a "must own" for 80's lover's. Gotta say if you love the 80's and have never seen it, why are you not watching it now. Seriously, wth are you waiting for.
