Finally, a kids' animated movie about zombies. Sure zombies are the bad guys, but at least they provide plenty of classic kids comic relief, too. Check out the trailer...
All the elements of a kids film are here:
- Child appropriate toilet humor--check.
- Bad puns like "this is getting out of hand" as zombie hand comes in--check.
- Cute overweight boy sidekick (like the boy scout from Up)--check.
- Jokey references to old horror films (like the music and final shot from Carpenter's Halloween)--check.
- Beauty queen older sister (who will probably scream her lungs out)--check.
This movie could go wrong if there's too many jokes for the adults (or the jokes are too adult) or if it goes overboard on gore, but both seem okay in the trailer.
Coraline was a well-done adaptation of a great book, so hopefully this is more of the same.
