Boogie, el aceitoso is a 2009 Argentine adult-orientated animated film based on the Roberto Fontanarrosa comic of the same name, directed by Gustavo Cova.The titular Boogie "The Oily" is a private investigator, hitman and ex-Vietnam veteran in a crime-infested city, ruled over by local kingpin Boss Sonny Calabria. After a run-in with Sonny's girlfriend Marcia, Boogie ends up being assigned to escort Marcia — who had turned against Calabria — to testify on a trial on the Boss. Boogie reluctantly agrees to the fee of 1 million, but soon enough he finds himself knee-deep against hordes and hordes of killers, including a vicious mercenary named Blackburn.This was notably the first 3D animated movie made in Argentina and Latin America. And it's NOT for kids. | |

Your Head Asplode: Most of the Boom, Headshot! moments in this movie results in the victim's entire heads getting vapourized, regardless of the distance, and it's awesome. See Auntie Sue for reference (although in this case, she's only a few feet away from Boogie's gun) | |

David Versus Goliath | |
| Boogie / int_1b3b48f3 | comment |
David Versus Goliath: Inverted example, but our "hero" (cough) is the huge, imposing, oversized Boogie, with the main villain being the smaller, faster and much more nimble Blackburn. Their fights in fact mostly revolves around Blackburn zipping all over the place around Boogie, while Boogie tries to catch Blackburn to take him down. | |

Hot Pursuit: Exaggerated in the final chase where Boogie is racing across the streets to reach the courthouse within 5 minutes, so that Marcia can testify against Sonny Calabria. But with Boogie speeding like crazy along the way, he soon ends up being pursued by what appears to be a few hundred cop cars (the film shows audiences a fifteen-second stream of police vehicles) accompanied by five or six choppers, many which Boogie blows up and crashes in the process. | |

Facial Horror: Blackburn loves dishing out these, since his preferred weapon is his pair of wicked-looking curved blades which he uses to carve his victims' faces apart in graphic detail. Suffered by Blackburn during his first fight against Boogie, when Boogie rips open Blackburn's face using Marcia's dropped heels. Resulting in the assassin getting a scary-looking Glasgow Grin for the second half of his screentime. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Early in the film, a young black boy begs Boogie for ten bucks, saying he needs the money to buy textbooks for an education so he doesn't grow up in the slums. Boogie says he'll give the kid thirty for a simple task — ringing the doorbell of a mobster's hideout. Cue the kid getting gunned to shreds upon touching the door, while Boogie simply gloats at his death — "sucker!" Blackburn had one of these himself, a Death Montage where he slices and dices his way through a rival gang, and gloating all the way. | |

Eye Scream: During a scene in a bar, a punk who ticks off Boogie the wrong way gets punted halfway across the bar by Boogie, before landing on a lady patron. The punk's eye then pops out and lands on the terrified lady's bossom. Cue the lady screaming. In Boogie's flashback around his date with his ex-girlfriend Sonya, she tried asking him for his lighter. Boogie responds by throwing the lighter into Sonya's face, right into the eye socket, which made Sonya decide Boogie is NOT worth it. Followed by Sonya leaving with her eye swollen. | |

It doesn't mean jack, because after delivering Marcia right on time to testify against Sonny Calabria, turns out Calabria had stationed a few dozen mooks in the courthouse to prevent the testimonial from happening, and as soon as Marcia testifies, cue all the mooks firing their guns in every direction to massacre everybody in the courthouse. At which point Boogie, who's still nearby, decides to settle things the only way he knows how — Guns Akimbo! | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Boogie / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: Boogie, the private investigator and hitman, who commit many questionable acts. However, he has some redeeming quality, such as after trading Marcia in to Calabria, Boogie starts feeling guilty, and decides to go back and rescue Marcia. He decides to bring her to the trial, that was waiting for her testimony, and crosses the country at high speed. | |

Shoe Slap | |
| Boogie / int_c66de6b8 | comment |
Shoe Slap: The first fight against Blackburn had Boogie losing... until he picked up Marcia's dropped heels. He then uses the back of the heel to rip out Blackburns' cheek, in graphic detail. Receives a Call-Back in the form of a Brick Joke, as in the finale Marcia offs Sonny Calabria... by whacking him to death using the same heel. | |

An Arm and a Leg: Most of Blackburns' onscreen kills end up losing limbs, with a geyser of blood accompanying, since Blackburn loves using knives for killing. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: The final fight between Blackburn and Boogie, where Blackburn tries using his Razor Floss to tie up Boogie, only to entangle himself instead once Boogie throws Blackburn into the direction of the strings. A moment later Blackburn gets his own knife into his temple. | |

| Boogie / int_da4cec2d | comment |
Would Harm a Senior: Boogie happily shoots his nanny Auntie Sue in the face for talking about his childhood behaviour in front of Marcia, and later during a diner scene shoves his fist into an old man's face (ripping out dentures embedded in Boogie's fists) because... the old man refused to pass the salt. | |

Mister Big | |
| Boogie / int_e3c70df1 | comment |
Mister Big: Sonny Calabria the kingpin, who is also the Greater-Scope Villain of the picture... barely stood up to most of the other characters' waistlines. And yet he spends the entire film barking orders and bossing his mooks around. | |

Expy | |
| Boogie / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: The titular protagonist is very similar to Marv in term of appearance but he's a chauvinistic prick as opposed to the latter's vow to not beat women; Sonny Calabria is clearly a parody of both Don Vito Corleone and Joe Pesci's characters; One of Calabria's mooks has an uncanny resemblance to Agent 47, complete with bald head, black suit and red necktie. | |

Gorn | |

Gorn: Loads and loads of animated gorn, from beginning to end. Let's just say, this cartoon managed to cram what appears to be two-hundred onscreen deaths within the span of ninety minutes, each gorier than the next. And it's glorious. | |

Offing the Annoyance | |
| Boogie / int_ebcbf841 | comment |
Offing the Annoyance: NEVER annoy Boogie. When Auntie Sue reminds Boogie in front of Marcia that he's a naughty boy as a kid, Boogie blows her face off.. An anti-cancer activist tries to talk Boogie out of smoking. Boogie's not interested, and once she flicks three ciggies out of Boogie's face, our "hero" (cough) then shoves his revolver down her throat, saying maybe she's interested in this instead. Cue an offscreen gunshot... | |

Never Found the Body: Blackburn, after the hotel fight where he's last seen in an exploding room after Boogie dropped a grenade on him. Yes, No One Should Survive That!, but Blackburn did (somehow) with the only injuries being his face getting ripped open during the brawl. | |

Mushroom Samba | |

Mushroom Samba: Boogie had this hallucination after being administered a syringe of sedatives by Marcia, where he's suddenly in the Vietnam War again, entering a Disneyland Parody called "War Land" (complete with a Tinkerbell Expy wielding a grenade launcher), where he gets to ride a Splash Mountain parody (with blood!), shoot up a carnival with an M16, massacre some mascots, with explosions going off everywhere he goes... and then he wakes up. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Boogie / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: The film's opening scene had Boogie scamming a young black boy to ring the doorbell of a mobster's den, getting the boy killed (hilariously) in the process. In a later scene in Marcia's apartment when Boogie gobbles up leftover food from Marcia's fridge, the boy can be briefly seen as a Face on a Milk Carton. | |
