Cuphead is based not only on 1930's cartoons in general- it’s inspired by the dark & "creepy, adult atmosphere" of animation from that era specifically. Watch as I uncover every macabre undertone of Cuphead- including topics like decapitation, nightmarish depictions of death and a story of sin as the brothers claim back their souls from the Devil.
