Chucky_Jr Review of The Trouble with Terkel

The Trouble with Terkel (2004)

Great for children... If your kids are homicidal maniacs.

[6 October 2005]

Bullies, ignorant parents, odd teachers, zombies, psychopaths and drunks all appear in this hilarious and gruesome animated film from Dennmark. Wow. If that's how the Danes make family entertainment, I wonder how the adult movies are. Poor little Terkel has a lot of problems, his parents barley show him any attention, his friend makes him watch slasher movies and he's begin bullied at school by two weirdos with paint ball guns. And as that wasn't bad enough, a psychopath on the loose is out to get him. Talk about a traumatic childhood! This movie is great and funny in many way, but it's sort of south park-like humor makes it hard to watch for small children. But teenagers and adults with a twisted sense of humor will probably enjoy it as much as I did.
