This Russian art film parody of the Simpsons opening credits is dark, so very, very dark

There’s been no shortage of people parodying the Simpsons opening credits over the years.

But you probably haven’t seen one done like this, a Russian art film version which is as bleak as it is rather brilliant.

Going to take us a little while to reflate after that.

This is… really dark. Not intended to be funny. At all.

It's artistically compelling, however.

Bart tying off might be the darkest part.

The whole thing is brilliant. Wow.

I think the darkest part is that Lisa doesn’t come home.
