The plot: Since he was very young, Norman has been blessed with the ability to see dead people. A surprise visit from deranged uncle Prenderghast casts a dark cloud over Norman's hometown of Blithe Hollow. "The witch's curse is real and you're the only one who can stop it!" Prenderghast instructs the boy. Sure enough, the seven people who sent witch Aggie to her doom back in 1712 rise from the grave to wreak havoc on the townsfolk.

Rolling Stone
"It's not just Pixar that kicks ass in animation. There's magic in ParaNorman, a small miracle in stop-motion 3D from the wizards at Laika."
Total Film
"Gorgeous animation and inspired set design help patch over a lacklustre script."
Empire
"Ingenious and wonderfully detailed, though better in its imaginative horror than its slightly too-broad comic knockabout."
