Coraline | Come, little children

HD and headphones really make a difference.

First of all, I should have finished this months ago. I can't seem to finish any of my current projects so I'm just so relieved to see this done. Due to my program being updated I nearly lost all of my coloring/transitions for this one; not to mention I had to render it 12 times before it worked (I almost gave up, because seriously, 12 times).

This was requested/inspired by my friend Sullabib, and I was even surprised I never noticed how well this song fits for Coraline. Considering it's originally from the movie "Hocus Pocus" the match makes more sense (Black mysterious talking cat helping the main character to defeat a witch? Come on, It's perfect!). I need to say I'm a little disappointed with the ending, but I hope it wasn't a total fail and that you like it.

Let me just say lip-sync with stop motion is hard. I really wanted this to turn out beautiful not only because it was a request from someone I admire, but also because I love Coraline. I feel like today's movies for kids are a little too much sugary. I cannot say how many times I had nightmares as a kid because of kid's movies (The legend of the sleepy hollow, Sleeping beauty, Fantasia, The nightmare before christmas...) but at the same time they amazed me. So it did feel great to see a creepy/scary movie again. If you haven't watched it yet, I say take a look.

That being said, enjoy!

[leahkiem]

I love Coraline it's my favourite movie

[squeakthealmighty]

Damn...
That movie was nightmare fuel for me as a child.
Nonetheless the video was amazing, the song fits almost perfectly.

i agree that movies now adays for kids are way too 'sugary' lol like if lion king came out it would be deemed inapproritate cause someone died or something idk but ugh
but STILL WHY !!!! the trailers of the movie terrifyied me, BUT I HAD TO SURVIVE THROUGH THIS VIDEO CAUSE YOU MADE IT but this movie still looks scaring LIKE THE DYING THINGS. AND THE MOM TURNING ITO LIKE A DEATH SKELETON THING WLIKE WHAT IS THAT

this movie and song fit perfectly i mean think about it the main part of the song is to lure kids into death/taking souls (just like the film)

I LOVE THESE SONG AND IT BRINGS THE CORALINE VIBE OUT

You should watch the Coraline videos by a youtuber called The Theorizer. He's noticed things in Coraline and was able to create a timeline of what has happened before the movie and a little after it

This really fits they should have used it

A great song for the Other Mother, and one of my favorite recordings from Erutan, ever.

[totemwolf]

Awesome!
My scariest kid film as a kid xD

[blissxfull_mxnchy]

I've watched this movie so many times I can't even remember how many times I watched it!

[amberbryson]

This song fits the movie so well I love it :)

[elizabethhoy]

I use to live this movie around age 7.. I would watch this every night before I went to bed😂

What's even more of a coincidence is that in both Hocus Pocus and Coraline, apart from having antagonist witches who feed on children's souls, the protagonist gets helped out by a talking black cat (though in HP, the cat was formally human)

[pinkfeiry]

i'm so glad you didn't give up on this, it turned out AMAZING, i never though about how much this song fitted the movie but i'm glad to know now :D

[orkusuga]

This is truly amazing. I absolutely love the movie, Coraline, and I still consider myself a big fan, and it was crazy to see how well you captured the creepiness of the movie with such a beautiful, obscure song! & I totally agree with you on today's children's movies. If only they still made films like this one, they just don't give you that cringy, disturbing feeling on the inside like they used to. Overall, you did a really good job in this video, I'm really impressed. (As always, of course.) ^^

Coraline is the creepiest Kids movie I have ever seen. I remember being scared at 9, and 7 years later at nearly 17, I was still kind of scared

[SilverStarStrike]

Very very VERY awesome! I love this movie too and the song fits better than a glove. My favorite part is 1:27 to 2:05. It flows so easily and it's so simple! The lip sync is also really good and I saw improvement on that. Awesome job!
