Night of the Living Duck
Release date: 1987-11-06
Plot: Daffy Duck, while searching for a horror comic, gets hit on the head and slips into a fever dream where he becomes a nightclub singer performing for a crowd of classic movie monsters. He tries to charm the audience with jokes, only to be swallowed by Smogzilla. He wakes up back in his apartment, clutching the comic book which suddenly comes to life and terrifies him.
Name and role: Daffy is the clear star of the short, combining his love of horror with his obsession for stardom. He shows off his musical chops with the song "Monsters Lead Such Interesting Lives," sung by Mel Tormé, whose voice Daffy mimics after using a spray labeled "Eau de Tormé."
Trivia and other appearances: The short Night of the Living Duck was used as the opening segment for Daffy Duck's Quackbusters (1988), an anthology film built around horror-themed Looney Tunes cartoons.
