Nice creepy atmosphere in the opening of the Mickey Mouse cartoon THE MAD DOCTOR (1933). There's something unnerving about how the film doesn't provide an intro or any context, it just drops us right into the action.

Fantastic short, if you haven't seen it! It was made by Seymour Kneitel's unit at the Max Fleischer studio and features an early appearance by the canine Betty Boop.
