Spicy City

1997 · 1 season

A sleazy, neon-lit anthology of animated noir tales, each a short, sharp shock of sex, violence, and bittersweet irony.

Created by
Ralph Bakshi
Genres
Animation, Action & adventure, Crime
Overview
In a neo-noir future, nightclub hostess and classy femme fatale Raven presents various stories that either involve some of her guests or even herself. Some are sleazy, some violent, some about love, and some about loneliness, some darkly humorous, and some bittersweet and tragic, some are gritty cyberpunk thrillers and some are more fantastical and lighthearted, but they are all spicy and original.
How it feels

Content
