I can't explain the terror this gif makes me experience. Like I like this movie, the Onceler is my favorite character even, but it feels overwhelmingly like a horror videogame death screen. Like a Poppy Playtime or a Bendi and the Ink machine-style death screen. This catches me off guard for a typically bright art-style movie that is without any of the real deep meaning behind the original Lorax. Something about it makes me feel like I should be holding a controller and I messed up the gameplay somehow.
