Death Carries a Big Stick is a 2005 comedy brickfilm by Nate Burr. It is set in a white expanse, and is about a man at death's door having a conversation with The Grim Reaper, who has lost his scythe.[1] It was created as a test of returning to animation following a hiatus due to a back injury,[2] and it was also a test of framing in widescreen.[3] It was made in one day.[4]
