Over the Garden Wall // Animation Club

Dir. Nate Cash / 2014 / 109m

"Somewhere, lost in the clouded annals of history, lies a place that few have seen—a mysterious place, called the Unknown—where long forgotten stories are revealed to those who travel through the wood..."

Two brothers, Wirt and Greg, find themselves lost in the Unknown; a strange forest adrift in time. With the help of a wise old Woodsman and a foul-tempered bluebird named Beatrice, Wirt and Greg must travel across this strange land, in hope of finding their way home.

Combining elements of Dante's Inferno, American Gothic, dark fantasy, and early 1900’s animation, Over the Garden Wall is an absolute treat to experience. Featuring a fantastic voice cast including Elijah Wood, Melanie Lynskey, Tim Curry, and John Cleese, and filled with songs that are sure to become earworms, this modern fairy-tale cult classic is the ultimate Fall/Halloween watch!
