Briarcliff Entertainment has shared a poster and trailer for Stitch Head, the upcoming animated family horror-comedy from directors Steve Hudson and Toby Genkel, which is based on Guy Bass’ bestselling children’s book series.
The film centres on the titular small, frighteningly friendly but long-forgotten creature who is awoken by a mad professor to protect the creations residing in his castle from the suspicious townspeople.
The voice cast includes Asa Butterfield, Joel Fry, Tia Bannon, Rob Brydon, Alison Steadman, Fern Brady, Jamali Maddix, and Ryan Sampson. Check out the trailer below…
High above the little town of Grubbers Nubbin, in a castle laboratory, the maddest of all mad professors brings monstrous creations to (almost) life… and then promptly forgets all about them. So, who runs the castle? Who keeps the monsters in line, so the townsfolk don’t form an angry mob? That job falls to Stitch Head – the professor’s very first creation. He does it all, unnoticed and unthanked. But when a ramshackle freak show rolls into town, its sly owner, Fulbert Freakfinder, comes knocking, offering Stitch Head fame, fortune… and maybe even love. A whimsical, heartfelt twist on the Frankenstein legend, STITCH HEAD is a comedy adventure for monsters of every age.
Stitch Head arrives in cinemas this Halloween.
