9, final poster for Shane Acker’s horror animated feature.

I know I have talked about ‘9′ in prior posts, however I am so besotted with this film and it isn’t even out yet!

The crew over at Bloody Good Horror posted the final poster for the upcoming animated horror feature ‘9′ directed by Shane Acker.  This film has me quivering with anticipation, the animation is creative and creepy, the story is original and the soundtrack so far is epic.

The ladies and gents over at Dread Central have access to some of the original conceptual drawings for some of the creatures, the seamstress is currently on show.

Have a look at the new poster and for those of you who haven’t seen the latest trailer (thanks to  First Showing ) here it is for your viewing pleasure. I’m sure you will be an enamored as I am .

9: Post-apocalyptic ragdolls, eloquent yet epic.

9 and his peeps.

9 and his peeps.

The first trailer for the Tim Burton produced ‘9′ appeared around December last year. Written and directed by Shane Acker it is described  by the guys and gals at First Showing as:

“9 takes place in a world parallel to our own, in which our very humanity is threatened. A group of rag dolls living a post-apocalyptic existence find one of their own, 9, who may be the key to their survival.”

I adore this style of animation especially the mixture of the rag doll and clockwork aesthetic. Combined with horror like beasties to give us some squeals, makes this film an exciting development in the animation/horror genre. The score for the trailer is by Coheed and Cambria lending it an unequivocally epic feel.
