Wallace & Gromit: The Curse Of The Were-Rabbit

British Claymation geniuses Nick Park and Steve Box bring to life their best-loved characters Wallace (voiced by veteran actor Peter Sallis) and his faithful tongue-tied dog Gromit in a nifty children’s movie filled with just the right amount of bawdy double entendres to make adults snicker. Through a painstaking filming process that takes a full day to shoot, at most, two seconds of screentime the filmmakers create a vibrant rural British community obsessed with growing giant vegetables for their annual fairground competition. Wallace and Gromit run a brisk pest control business called "Anti-Pesto" by humanely capturing garden-ravaging bunnies with Wallace’s specially invented Bun-Vac 6000 contraption that "sucks as well as blows." But their Northern England clientele go wiggy when an enormous rabbit attacks their gardens during a harvest full moon to devour every gigantic vegetable in sight. It’s "the world’s first vegetarian horror movie," but there’s nothing scary about it.
