History

Phil Mulloy (born 1948) is a British animator of Irish ancestry. He was born in Wallasey, Merseyside and studied both painting and filmmaking. Mulloy worked as a screenwriter and director of live-action films until the late 1980s before becoming an animator. His animations have been described as "satirical grotesque" and often portray the dark side of human nature and contemporary social, political, and religious values in a humorous and at times, shocking way. His visual style is distinctive in its use of primitive, often skeletal figures and minimalist backgrounds. Mulloy has made over 30 animated films many of which are in themed groupings based on Hollywood genres. Mulloy has won many international awards for his work and has conducted several workshops for young animators. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Endgame
Writer
After a tough week at the office, Richard and George like to play war games over the weekend to relax. The dispassionate atmosphere and minimalistic style with which the growing brutality is handled slowly wipes the smile from your face, before making sure that it doesn’t return.

The Pain and the Pity
Director
The third – and presumably final – instalment in the mercurial ‘Christies’ animated features by the equally mercurial bad boy of British animation, Phil Mulloy. Mister Christie and the others return for one last time to try and work out exactly who they are. A serial killer is loose deep under the streets of London. Raw, roughly hewn images knitted together with a unique system of narrative structuring, bashed into existence using the tools and resources of our age and plastered onto the big screen with the customary ‘take it or leave it’ Mulloy energy.
The Banker
Director
Will Mr Christie allow Terry to join the Mayan End of the World Society?
Father
Script

Extreme Animation: Films by Phil Mulloy
Director
One of animations most prurient, dark and mischievious masters, multi-award-winning animator Phil Mulloy stands as an antidote to all that is kitsch and sentimental. Using simple brush pens and ink, Mulloy's works are witty and acerbic fables, loaded with graphic images of sex and violence that are both perceptive comments on human nature and challenges to contemporary values. These brilliantly subversive satirical cartoons are definitely not for the squeamish or easily offended.

Intolerance
Director
The film begins with an Earth space craft stumbling upon a movie floating in the vast nothingness. The film turns out to be from planet Zog and when people see it, they are shocked and angered by the Zogs (or is it 'Zogians' or 'Zogites'?). It seems that they have their genitals where our heads are and vice-versa. To make things really weird, they eat and drink with their genitals and defecate with their faces.
Seasons Greetings
Director
This visual postcard wishes its viewers a Happy Christmas and other good wishes one sends on a joyous occasion such as the holidays. However, this video postcard starts out with an idyllic winter scene soon transgresses into a bizarre series of appearances of a fish spitting out words, an elephant who appears to be half made out of jelly playing with a ball. All these add to the strange atmosphere of Mulloy’s Christmas card. Mulloy was inspired by the financial crisis to depict a bleak winter.
The Sexlife of a Chair
Director
Various sexual activities involving a chair, and occasionally, other chairs.
The Chain
Director
The film begins with a little kid making a splashy red picture and licking and puking on it. Then, oddly, people behave as if the picture is amazingly important. Later, it seems that this childish scrawl is somehow a map of the mythical city of El Dorado and people are willing to kill to get it. Eventually, a group of colonists use it to dig and dig for this treasure--only to end up blowing themselves up. Then, the natives all celebrate and live happily ever after.

The History of the World Episode 16: The Invention of Writing and Its Destruction
Director
Animator Phil Mulloy follows a simple maxim in hypothesizing the origins of writing: the crudest explanation is most likely the correct one.
The Ten Commandments
Director
In this well-known biblical story, Moses is raised to be a Pharaoh despite his Hebrew heritage. As his younger brother desires the crown, Moses creates a relationship with the enslaved Hebrews and leads them to freedom. Although a long journey, Moses is blessed with the voice of God and is given the Ten Commandments, for which all followers are to live by. This is a great educational movie for the whole family.
