I'm fairly sure that you're right, and this is *not* stop motion. Ivo Caprino had patented a system for operating puppets from behind, and I believe that that's what he used the most in the early films, like this one. Later films, and Flåklypa, relied more on stop motion. I don't think it worked as well as it should for making kids brush their teeth. A problem is that many kids thought that Karius and Baktus were so cute, and felt sorry for them. Even though there was a scene where Karius said "I'm going to tease him. I'll hit a place where I know it hurts." then we hear Jens, or Jon, say "Mom, my teeth hurt!" and both of them laugh. So we get a sense of their sadism. Still, what really looked scary was when the toothbrush came, then the dentist who plugs their houses, and then the toothbrush again, after which they are flushed down the sink. Finally we see them on a raft, "looking for some teeth to live in." One thing that might make Danes believe that Caprino is Danish, is the fact that one story that he adapted was "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" by H.C. Andersen, who, of course, was Danish.
Yep. Nightmare fuel right here.😂 I still don't like the puppets, there is something creepy about the movement of their eyes and mouths. I get a little jumpscare when I see them.😂 But I used to be terrified as a child. I think the message worked for me at least, had my first cavity at 28 in a wisdom tooth. Now I have three fillings at 49.😂 I work with toddlers and read the book to them but I don't use the film...I don't want to be the one to scare them senseless...😂😂😂

My brother loved Karius and Baktus.Every time my mum brushed his teeth he was crying and said:No,don't take Karius and Baktus away!😅
I loved it when a kids show can make a different in a kids life.
