In the dizzying vertical world of Skyscraper Scrap, directed by David Gemmill, a frantic janitor’s simple cleaning shift spirals into an epic battle for survival. When a colossal, sentient wad of discarded chewing gum begins to consume the very foundations of a shimmering mega-tower, this unassuming maintenance worker becomes the last line of defense. His motivation is pure necessity: to save his job, the building, and everyone trapped inside from a sticky, pink oblivion.

This three-minute animated onslaught, from the minds of writers Michael Ruocco and Johnny Ryan, delivers a hilariously grotesque and fast-paced spectacle of urban absurdity. The janitor must navigate surreal office landscapes and outwit the ever-expanding gum monster using only his wits and whatever cleaning supplies he can salvage. The film masterfully blends slapstick chaos with a uniquely bizarre horror-comedy atmosphere, creating a relentless and inventive struggle between man and mundane monstrosity in the most precarious setting imaginable.
