'Dumbland is a crude, stupid, violent, absurd series. If it is funny, it is funny because we see the absurdity of it all.' Fresh off the critical success of
Mulholland Dr. [
previously] in 2001,
David Lynch set out in 2002 to conquer the internet, creating a paywalled website to feature original content like his short film
Darkened Room, an anti-sitcom called
Rabbits, and the intentionally lowbrow
DumbLand.
Featuring animation, music, sound effects, and voice acting entirely by Lynch,
DumbLand is a black and white Flash animation series with a total running time of approximately half an hour.
A few notes on DumbLand from Lynch. [
