Synopsis: In a matchbox, Scotland Yard detective Charley MacNeesha carries his constant companion MacGregor – who is a either a hairy insect or a buggy-looking mouse. The pair travels to New York to solve the case of the Fuzz-Faced Phantom who causes full-grown chickens to hatch from eggs, pots to rain from the ceiling, and pants to dance of their own volition in this surrealist comedy that anticipated Salvador Dalí and Luis Buñuel’s An Andalusian Dog by more than a year. Wonderfully weird and childishly playful fun for all ages.
