Paul Sharits' T,O,U,C,H,I,N,G certainly references Un Chien Andalou and the 
idea of the cut as a violent assault on the eye.  I think both films actually 
mock the Kuleshov effect by actually presenting the slash one way or another.  
Un Cien Andalou doesn't stop the cutting after the cloud slashes the moon and 
Sharits yuxtaposes the cut when both images run frantically one after the other 
at 24 frames per second.
