Last Days of Coney Island is a project written by and being produced, directed and animated by filmmaker Ralph Bakshi, about a NYPD detective, the prostitute he alternately loves and arrests, and the seedy characters that haunt the streets of New York City's run-down amusement district.

Since being announced the film has gotten a lot of interest, but no official funding.


Attempts were made to fund the film entirely independently, but have since fizzled. Now the focus of Bakshi Productions has shifted to drumming up interest in Bakshi's currently available catalog of films to hopefully induce FOX's animation division, or an well established independent animation company to fund the remainder of the production.

Some images were released of scenes from the film during it's production. They are available on the official site's website.
