To my beloved enjoyers of alien pet whump (which seems to be gaining some traction):
I have a movie recommendation for you!
Fantastic Planet is an animated film from 1973 about "oms" being kept as pets by the giant Traags. An om manages to escape his captivity with a traag learning device, and brings it to the feral oms. Together, they change history.
It's a wonderfully weird movie full of stunning visuals and fantastic whump. Dehumanization, poison gas, the works. I'd highly recommend giving it a watch!
(I genuinely have no clue how to describe these last two or I'd add image descriptions. I'm sorry!)
