Neil Gaiman's Coraline




This weekend I got the chance to see Coraline, a movie based upon a short horror novella by writer Neil Gaiman. Every time the commercial would come on for this movie my daughter would always say that she wanted to see it so this weekend my wife and I and my daughter went to see it. I liked this movie a lot because of the fact that it had a little bit of the horror element in it as well as dummying down for the kiddies. Still though there was some frightening images in it, not to give away details but Coraline is about a little girl who is not very happy with her home life and when her parents decide to move to a new apartment she finds another world which has everything she wants, but it comes at a price, and this price is pretty disturbing for a "kiddie" movie. I mean who wants to have buttons sewn where their eyes used to be, ewwwwww!! I enjoyed the movie but, of course, I would because I am so morbid.
Any who, I think my daughter enjoyed it because I haven't heard about any nightmares or anything. My wife on the other hand..............
