Earlier we saw the teaser poster for the upcoming 3D stop motion feature film
ParaNorman, and now a teaser trailer has been released.
The film is based on an original story by
Chris Butler (Corpse Bride), who also directed the film alongside
Sam Fell (Flushed Away, The Tale of Despereaux), and follows a young boy by the name of Norman Babcock who can see dead people. That, however, is the least of his problems…
In ParaNorman, a small town comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee), who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he'll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst of all, moronic grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits.
The movie features voice acting from
Casey Affleck (The Killer Inside Me ), Tempestt Bledsoe (“The Cosby Show”),
Jeff Garlin (Toy Story 3),
John Goodman (Red State, Matinee, Monsters, Inc.),
Bernard Hill (Titanic), Academy Award nominee
Anna Kendrick (Up in the Air),
