Zumbilênio - O parque dos monstros

With it's unique art style and excellent music this movie has definitely become a classic in my home. It isn't scary even if it centered around monsters and a monster themed amusement park. My two year old niece loves this movie and so do I.

I always loved the Universe since i started reading the comics! This is a beautiful story with a beautiful animation! It's funny, thrilling and a little sad sometimes! One of my chilhood's films, this is why I recommend it to everyone!

Zombillenium is a struggling theme park where the staff are actual monsters, vampires, werewolves and zombies. Destined to entertain customers forever.

Hector, a human being arrives to check out the park and ends up dead. He leaves behind his daughter Lucie orphaned and she is in the hands of a cruel teacher.

No one is sure what kind of monster he has become. He is distraught that he found little time for Lucie when he was alive and now he is dead.

Gretchen a young goth witch on an internship is charged to look after Hector. However Hector soon upsets the elitist vampires who treats others, especially the zombies abysmally.

The film has a socialist undercurrent about worker's rights. It also makes for an easygoing children's cartoon.

It starts off well but never manages to soar. Despite its original premise, this French cartoon borrows from other horror films and cultural icons. There is a Michael Jackson impersonator and when Hector transforms at the end, he looks like Hellboy.

This a very unusual movie that can be great fun for entire family. The story, characters and setup are all very provocative, yet fun and positive in the end. We watched it with our 7 yro and it was great.

If you are a metalhead, I am pretty sure you will like this one. :-)

My 9 year old son and I watched this not expecting much but we laughed and cried which to me is a pretty good sign of a great film.
