The Fleischer studio (and it was Max's brother Dave, who was the real creative force behind the studio- Max got all the credit, because he was the producer) had a style like no one else, even of the day: A bizarre combination of bouncy, rubber-hose animation, rotoscoping of live action actors (one of Dave's inventions), Rube Goldberg-type technology, and spooky images of death & the macabre.
