Question: I need help finding a clay stop motion short film that was on MTV in the early 90's!!?
Somewhere in the early 90's I was watching MTV and some extremely creepy (at the time, I was younger) claymation videos came on!.
The one I remember the most was of a kid who was scared to go up his extremely dark and long stairs!. His mom (I'm assuming) makes him go up to go to bed and somewhere along the line, a type of bird or some flying creature comes and rips out his eyes and feeds them to its babies!.

Does anyone know what this short is called!? Or what any of theses strange shorts were called!?!?

If it helps it came on after Beavis & Butthead!.
Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

MTV ha d a show in the early '90s called "Liquid Television"!. It had all sorts of creepy animation!. You might want to poke around on video sites and see what you can find with that in the search box!. It might be hard to find though, I don't think they put every episode out on video!. They had a "best of" VHS though!. Maybe you can get lucky and find some sort of episode listing on Wikipedia or something!. I'm guessing you'll have to do some digging here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
