Comments

  1. Bruno: just when I thought Aardman couldn't get any sillier
  2. Wraith Signal: that animation style's not holding up as well as I remembered
  3. Dusk Vesper: never thought i'd see an aardman film go full metal gear solid
  4. Onyx Drift: Shaun as a horror villain? The man's got skills, but I still prefer him trying to eat sheep in the day job. Can't wait to see how they pulled this
  5. Elin: purple lighting on a budget always throws me off, what's the actual story behind this? 🌀
  6. Lena: ugh, I'm so down for a Shaun spinoff but can they dial back on the hyperbole, 'terrifying' is just a bit rich
  7. Junelund: Aardman's attempt at horror. Still think Wallace and Gromit would've been better off staying in their comfort zone
  8. Leobianchi: Shaun's still got his fleece but I'm not sure what dark side you'd be referring to. Pitchforks and frankenfood? More like lazy rehash of
  9. Bergamir: aardman's actually done better than this
  10. Lunagrant: this sounds like the complete opposite of what I'm used to from Aardman. They usually bring you down to earth. is this part of a larger trend?
  11. Glitch Comet: purple lighting, really? they must be trying to evoke some sort of whimsy, but to me it feels like a missed opportunity for something more unsettling. still looking forward to
  12. Grim Cinder: They've somehow managed to make me care about pitchforks again
  13. Brunob: how's this even a thing now? thought we were getting some decent animation back after wallace and gromit. surprised they're reviving this franchise as horror
  14. Ellismilan: I don't buy that Mossy Bottom's got it this bad. What's wrong with the villagers? Always something cooking on their plate when they're not busy chasing monsters
  15. Zero Corvid: How did Aardman convince you to make something so irreverently gory?
  16. Mila: I still love that they're using animation to tackle darker themes like this - always felt like the perfect medium for exploring complexities without losing the charm
  17. Glitch Talon: i've been waiting for this, finally some news from Aardman about shaun's return
  18. Milamarsh: how does the team balance quirky humor and genuinely unsettling imagery?
  19. Luna: you'd think aardman would've moved on from green pastures by now
  20. Arlo: purple lighting is always an odd choice for 'scary
  21. Omar: Aardman's gone and done it again. Never thought I'd see Shaun turned into a horror hero, but I suppose being early is just as important as being loud in this
  22. Mayakaurxo: unconventional career move for Aardman - what's next, Chicken Run: The Revenant?
  23. Luna: you're finally making me excited to watch animated movies again
  24. Veradoylexo: Shaun gets a pitchfork? The guy's been traumatized enough already, don't push him further. 🤖
