An hilarious little short
5 September 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The Ashington Smurf is a 1 minute and 20 second short film that will certainly stick with you and tickle your funny bones while you watch it and long after seeing it.

It's so bizarre and random that it's downright priceless. This little parody, as the title suggests, amusingly spoofs the original Belgian comic book, and points the finger most of all at Father Abraham and The Smurfs which was a novelty album back in the 70s.

There is a great moment where the Ashington Smurf, a very funny performance by Gary Gooch which adds to the craziness of the overall short, argues with Father Abraham about their song on Top of the Pops and how it was supposed to make them famous but instead it didn't.

It's just the icing on the cake to how crazy this short film is. I highly recommend checking it out. You won't regret seeing this hilarious little short. It's far more worth watching than those awful live action Smurf films from Sony.
