Doing the bad guy backstory reveal in the midst of the action is an inspired choice, too.
And the actual scene here is wonderful. A collection of images and montages repeating, you get the feel of what it must have been like. That cat...that fuckin' cat with the two eyes ever staring.
The image of the bodies on the ground is more powerful and scarier then them showing us the violence.

So, he's basically Fat Buu?
For me it feels more like a real theme park than an obviously creepy one. I think the creepiness derives from the absurd and horrifying events that take place in a recognizably "real" setting that the characters take seriously. I think it's much better that way than trying to make everything about the setting creepy, which easily descends into DMW-style self-parody.
That's my $0.02 on it, anyway.

Brilliant episode
I enjoyed this episode a lot more than I thought I would based on my memories of it. It felt like a nightmare, not in a bad way, but in the way it was constructed with story, animation, and music. It felt like a nightmare that I might have. Mad Pierrot and everything he does -- especially the way he moves -- is a little out there even by Bebop standards but that's in keeping with how nightmarish he is. Truly a great horror episode.
Also, there is no way that this show was animated in 1998. It's barely aged at all. I just wish that they would include "The Real Folk Blues" in the Toonami broadcast. That song is the perfect conclusion to any Bebop episode.

"Maybe this is finally it, the one I won't come back from..."
*silence*
"...Just playing with your head! (effortless Bloom voiceshift) Would you rescue me if it were true?"
Loved that delivery.
"It's Dangerous in here! LETS PLAY OUTSIDE!!!"
Bebop can be so quoteable. Not even going to mention next weeks until then, heh.

What. That shit dragged on so fucking long.
Oh yes, and I was so excited to watch Deadman with you guys.
Line of storms on Friday night: Hey I'm gonna take down your phone, cable, and internet for 24 hours so fuck you.

There almost up to where Netflix leaves off with FMA
Casshern?
You know, that robot guy (but not really a robot) who killed the Sun named Moon called Luna who I think is also a robot.
Ohhh, that's who Casshern is! I was wondering.
He does flips and shit, and kicks ass
