Laika Entertainment has debuted the second full length trailer for the upcoming 3D stop-motion animated supernatural horror-comedy:
ParaNorman.
Directed by Chris Butler and Sam Fell (Flushed Away), and starring the voices of Anna Kendrick (Up in the Air), John Goodman (Monsters, Inc.), Leslie Mann (Knocked Up), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Superbad), Casey Affleck (Ocean’s Eleven), Jeff Garlin (Curb Your Enthusiasm), and Elaine Stritch (30 Rock),
ParaNorman follows a young misfit (Smit-McPhee) with a very special talent who must save his town from an age-old curse.
In the film, a small town comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman (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. Following LAIKA’s groundbreaking Academy Award-nominated animated feature Coraline, ParaNorman is only the second stop-motion animated feature to be made in 3D.
ParaNorman will open in 2D and 3D theaters around the U.S. on August 17th, 2012.
