Hog Wild is the 17th episode from season 4 of The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy

Plot[]

As Billy is tired of all the rules in his house, he cannot resist the urge to try his father's new motorcycle. The motorcycle breaks down as soon as Billy touches it, and Billy asks Grim to repair it. Grim's scythe turns the motorcycle into a wild, supernatural vehicle, which transforms Billy's parents and everyone around it into undead creatures and motorized monsters named Kustom Kulture Creatures. Mandy makes Billy tell the truth about breaking the motorcycle in the first place, at which point his parents and everyone else return to normal. Billy was, of course, grounded. Harold gives up with motorcycles, and switches to ships. When he says Billy can’t, they're the rules, he gets upset. The episode concludes with his head getting stuck in the iris closing effect.

Trivia[]

  • This episode is a clear reference to the artworks of Ed Roth (a.k.a "Big Daddy") and Rob Zombie. All the transformed creatures, like Billy's parents, resemble the drawings of Rat Fink, a famous character from the gasser culture. Grim even calls the transformed people as Kustom Kulture creatures.
  • The background of Gerome's Place is similar to Bikini Bottom, the main setting of the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants.
  • As of this episode, the series is now animated by Digital eMation. But it won't animate all the episodes until "Billy and Mandy Save Christmas". Also, the animation has been getting a bit more cartoonier compare to the previous episodes.
    • This is the first aired episode animated at Digital eMation. Later on, the first production episode animated at Digital eMation would air.
