MONKEYBONE (2001)

HENRY SELICK

Plot

Cartoonist, Stu, lies in a coma after car crash when he wakes up he finds himself in the world of his creations ad influenced by his devilish cartoon character, Monkeybone. Monkeybone manages to take over Stu's body and sets about creating havoc in the real world, an event that could lead to the mortal end for Stu. Monkeybones is the first feature from the man behind A Nightmare Before Christmas and is a gob smacking mixture of stop-motion animation and live action; It's odd, flawed, weird, crude and well worth a watch.
