This is a gem of a short! Primarily, one would think, Herd is a short about a guy who works a dead end job at a fast food joint. His life is presumably redundant until an alien begins stalking him. However, Herd is really about the decimation of planet earth by aliens, to appease the cow populous. A few scenes stick in my memory:
When the man returns home from his burger joint job, he finds soul solicitors on his doorstep. They let themselves into his home, where he promptly sprays them down with a fire extinguisher.
Also the alien is a cutie. He looks like a p***ed off kermit the frog.
