Sure, artist/writer Johnny Ryan's Prison Pit is a series of graphic novels that escalates its depictions of violence and all-around immorality to such a level that readers assume that there's no possible way Ryan can top himself, and then he does. But do the drawings move? Well, they didn't, until now. If you're in the Los Angeles area, you can go see what promises to be an X-rated animated version of the books, now five volumes deep into the grotesque, occasionally genitals-based brutality of the inhabitants of the hellish titular pit. It'll be at Cine Family on August 30.
