. . . more of a Devil than a farm animal. Gabby is drawn to look like a mean old bald little man with horns sticking out either side of his head, than as a suitable barn yard buddy for Porky Pig. So when PORKY AND GABBY's camping excursion turns out to be a journey into the Heart of Darkness, this development comes as little surprise. If it's not the road-hogging trucker piloting a Star Van driving the ill-matched pair nuts, it's their own homicidal maniac of a car. After implausibly surviving several incidents of mayhem both on the road and off, finally reaching their camp site does NOT turn out to be any picnic, either. As if one Killer Bee is not enough, Gabby unleashes an outboard motor with a more voracious appetite than JAWS. Not content to merely gobble the ill-fated campers' tent, this runaway mechanism chews its way through the forest before shattering both car and moving van into more shreds of metal than a recalled Cusinart Machine. Salad Shooters, anyone?
