This is a collection of half a dozen animated short films from 15 years ago. Most of these run around 5 minutes, some a bit more, some a bit less, so the whole thing goes on for about half an hour. The tone is basically what you would expect when Tim Burton ("Vincent") directs an animated superhero. The animation reminded me more of a poor man's version of Don Hertzfeldt. Lisa Marie and Glenn Shadix, who do most of the voice acting, have worked with Burton on several occasions before already. Unfortunately, these Stainboy cartoons are almost never funny. The general idea is always the same. Stainboy's boss instructs him about a new super-villain. Stainboy goes out to find him, meets him, looks lost, but somehow the enemy always manages to defeat himself. It's only entertaining for the first 1.5 or 2 of these short films. The matchstick girl word-plays were already pretty cringeworthy. The animation is black-and-white for the most part (with shades), but here and there they include also a strong bright color as an opposite to the bleakness, mostly red. All in all, a very forgettable project in my opinion. Not recommended.

I expected this to be a lot better. I love Tim Burton's work, so I was really excited to see these online short films. Well, they weren't at all what I had expected.I don't really know what exactly it is I don't like. I guess they're just sort of dull. The sound bothers me, and most of the characters, although I loved Roy the Toxic Boy, and Stainboy.The Match Girl episode probably bugged me the most, although it was pretty funny.I also don't like the way some of the characters die. Like how Match Girl basically set the gas station on fire, or how the Girl Who Stares died, in general. Roy's death was amusing, surprisingly. Death by a car freshener. Very original ;-) That made me laugh so hard...There are some things that aren't appropriate for kids. Just some language and gore. That's about all I have to say! 3/10

Stain Boy was created by Tim Burton,Stain Boy does not have any powers except for the fact that stains come out of his body. Stain Boy is an internet series. The episodes are,"The Birth of Stain Boy", "Toxic Boy", "Staring Girl", "Robot Boy", "Match Girl", and "Bowling Ball Head". All of the episodes (except for 1) name the villains that Stain Boy has to defeat. Sgt. Glen Dale is the guy who tells Stain Boy who to defeat and where they live or stay. In "The Birth of Stain Boy" you find out that less than a week after Stain Boy was born his dad wanted to get rid of him his mom did not want to but she gave up, the last thing she said to Stain Boy was "He's right you are a freak, but remember I'll always love you thats what mothers do." Well thats my comment on Stain Boy, Bye!:)

stars: Glenn Shaddix as The Police Chief.This is really weird. Its about superhero Stainboy that never really does anything to stop the villain but always prevails. He fights such enemies as Match Lady, Staring girl, Toxic Boy and others. Stainboy never talks, but instead everyone else does. In every episode he is pestered by the chief (Shaddix from Burton's Beetlejuice and Nightamre Before Christmas). They are directed and written by Tim Burton and even the music for these are done by Danny Elfman. 6 episodes were made, the last of which amused me the most.Contains some animated violence/gore and some language.My rating-B.
