Bizarre, surreal, avant-garde animated short films

[SpamViking]

I'm looking for recommendations of animated short films. Preferably older, and not CG. There are a number of shorts I recall seeing years ago, but I can't remember the names for the life of me. I'm looking for stuff that's out of the ordinary, creepy, surreal, etc. Cell animation, claymation, cut out animation, etc. I've found some interesting stuff on youtube, but I figured I'd ask you guys as well. Any suggestions guys?
btw,
I was gonna call this thread "animated shorts", but I figured it would be filled with animated gifs of "shorts" :D

Brothers Quay (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brothers_Quay) I believe hold the crown for the genre. Those guys are incredible and really know what they're doing.

Tim Burton's "Vincent" was actually his first work and was REALLY good, as well.

I'd suggest checking out the work of Jan Svankmayer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_%C5%A0vankmajer), but you probably already know about him.

Of course, there's also this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRweyGHJ3bc).

Yep, I'm familiar with both JS, and TBC, great stuff though. That vid is pretty damn cool X-V!

Forgot about this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMxPA7jvohs) clip I came across last year, nightmare fuel for the kiddies.

I actually have the full length movie of that.
Only that one scene is really scary. The rest of the movie is kind of stupid.

Also, this:

The Man in the Lower-Left Hand Corner of the Photograph, by Robert Morgan.
I really enjoy his work.

Someone took the Tool song Jambi and put it over his video The Separation, and it was actually pretty cool.
