Watch The Secret of the Selenites For Free

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

When I first saw this cartoon, way back in 1983 (I was an adult already), I thought it was a few decades old even though it was actually recently made. It's made in a way that seemed very different than most American cartoons, very hokey and a lot of it seemed unmotivated (like, why do the characters vibrate and twist?). But something kept me from switching it off. And the more I watched it, the more my brain melted, with various lobes turning off until I almost *liked * it. Now, more than 25 years later, I can't tear my eyes away from it, and I even forced my (grown) daughter to watch it so that she, too, could be subtly altered by it (I think it knocks your IQ down for good).But something always bothered me about the catchy theme song, and now it has come to me: its refrain is *awfully* reminiscent of the refrain to Helen Reddy's 1975 "Emotion".

Hello, I remember this movie on HBO as an animated movie that showed in the summer of 1984.....and it was called "Moon Madness", does anyone know where I can find it, or buy it, or has anyone taped it? email me too, [email protected] it was a great movie, that talked about something about "Wongolia", and it was cool and all that and animated. Showed on HBO in America around the same time as brain games, also was in English. No one has heard or seen of it since, until someone on this forum told me about it through it's French title....it must be very obscure, and no one has seen it on video, I have been looking around for a long time, but the funny thing is, no one seems to remember it as Moon Madness, as it will never show up in any searches as that name,

This is one of the most awesome and weird cartoons I've ever seen, and am really happy I stumbled across it. It is honestly one of my most favorite things now (of course I like really cheesy and weird things, so if you like normal, this is not for you). It's like Puff the Magic Dragon, on crack! It's just so offbeat and strange, with gorgeous colors and a bizarre world. Very unique from it's strange wobbly people, to it's odd moon creatures, to it's awesome spastic and spontaneous man dancing. I also love the slight twist in storyline at the end, which I won't give away. Great music theme song too. I haven't watched any other Jean Image animation yet (though I will track them down), but there's no way they could be as gorgeous a gem as this one. The storyline is that astronomer Sirius sends the famous Baron Munchausen and his commerades up to the moon to discover the secret world of the Selenites, and they discover a bizarre, beautiful and dangerous world, and the Slelenites are being threatened by a mysterious race, and a comical battle ensues. It's made for Children, like the Puff the Magic Dragon tales, but much more bizarre and pleasing for adults, and much more beautiful colors and animation. Really weird.
