A TOWN CALLED PANIC (1-1-11)

A Town Called Panic (2009) - ***1/2

This stop-motion film from Belgium (based on a TV series of the same name) is just another of the many great animated films released in 2009. The plot begins with Cowboy and Indian planning to build housemate Horse a barbecue out of bricks for his birthday. This sets off a perilously wacky chain of events that sends the trio to the center of the earth, across a frozen landscape and into an underwater universe. It's as silly as it sounds, but it's also a lot of fun. Definitely not for everone, but for fans of adult animation (especially those who appreciate the shows on adult swim), this is a must see!
