Aroview: Six dynamic and distinct graphic artists illustrate various primordial phobias using only 'light and dark' in this impressive compendium of animated nightmares.

Unhampered by any weak links, this is a rare 'omnibus' feature that also exceeds the sum of its parts, matching its stand-alone inventiveness with conceptual integrity and a seamless integration that threads two of the short stories through the other consecutive four. Liberated by the constraints of its monochrome palette, it takes psycho-horror into fresh territory while reclaiming the animated medium for grown-ups.
