At least 101 Dalmatians had the decency to only allude to skinning puppies instead of showing animated diagrams of it. No dogs actually get put through the machine, but there’s a lot of talk about what it does and what the implications are. A woman has made a machine that cuts dogs up and makes toupees out of them. One of the many plot lines is so dark, even I was taken aback.

The basic premise is cute and there’s an obvious message about the importance of what’s on the inside over what’s on the outside. In all honesty, the first third of 100% Wolf isn’t bad.
