Blake and Mortimer

Blake and Mortimer is an animated television series, based on the Blake and Mortimer comic book by Edgar Pierre Jacobs. The series was directed by Stéphane Bernasconi, and produced by Ellipse, and shown in 1997. The first nine stories were used in this series, as well as four brand new stories, devised by the creators: The Viking's Bequest, The Secret of Easter Island, The Alchemist's Will, and The Druid. New writers, mostly connected to the production company as writers, dialogists or translators, were asked to come up with original plotlines which used the characters of Jacobs' stories, respected the magical/scientific Universe, but rang interesting changes.

The Dog

Grotesque and artless, this repugnant sexploitation film is about two unbalanced brothers who try to force an itinerant bum to rape their mother, and then all three men go after the promiscuous woman who lives next door. When it is revealed that the homeless man is none other than the father of the two brothers, the plot slides even further downhill.
