You know, Sundays are one of my favorite days of the week. There is Football (Go Pack Go!) and now, The Walking Dead, and of course another blog.
Today I am reviewing ParaNorman.
This movie is cute and has a surprisingly deep message all the while being creepy.
Released in 2012 this movie was directed by Chris Butler and stars John Goodman, Casey Affleck, and Kodi Smit-McPhee.
The premise of this movie is very simple: Norman will need to use his special gift of talking to ghosts in order to save the town from a 100 year old curse.
One of the great things about this movie is that they have an openly gay character in a kids movie! Of course you don't really know this until the end, and I won't tell you who, but how awesome is that?!
IMDB rates this a 6.9 out of 10 stars. Rotten Tomatoes gives it an 87% with a 73% audience approval rating. I am giving this a 4 out of 5 stars, great movie to watch with the family with a great message at the end. Not a lot of 'horror' movies can do that.
Until tomorrow,
Sleep tight and don't let the zombies bite!
