Worker & Parasite is probably based on the Tom & Jerry cartoons that were made cheaply in the USSR directed by Gene Deitch.

I could only find this (saner than average) one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvCVHQff_IE

I always conflate the little hedgehog with the little Mole, if that counts as Soviet : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lugJIegVR4

Hedgehog in the Fog is very special. Definitely tear-provoking for some reason.

KINDA SPOILER:
