A parody of the religious children’s series Davey and Goliath, filmed with live actors in ears, hair and claymation‑like sets. Davey’s father belts him for claiming he saw a bear—though true—while his sister watches gleefully; their dog Goliath, a footrest, is also whipped. Oedipal dream sequences and Davey’s revenge turn the setting into a nightmare.
