MONSTER HOUSE trailer rules!

Hey folks, Harry here... I love this MONSTER HOUSE trailer. To me, for some strange reason - it looks like a Richard Corben children's story. I think it's the way they stylized the people, they look like Corben people and I like that. This is the second big Performance Capture film that Zemeckis has produced. He's not directing this one, cuz he's busy on BEOWULF, but it seems that he's learned something fairly fantastic which is to not go for realistic looking people - but to stylize them more. The Corben look may not be by accident, I've heard that on BEOWULF that Zemeckis wants that film to be a living Frazetta painting - can't wait for the first look on that one. Of all the upcoming CG animated films I've seen a trailer for so far - MONSTER HOUSE is at the top of my list. Maybe, if only I remember my own neighborhood monster house. It was red brick, two story, Ivy crawling up its walls. Nobody ever went in and nobody ever came out... but lights came on. Shadows moved across windows, and nobody ever came to the doors... at least not while we looked, we were too busy running. I like this story premise. Here's the trailer - again offered not only in regular Quicktime, but in the glory that is HD! Bliss.
