One of my favorite gags to this day is that the Vicar absolutely knows that he's in a horror film. He totally leans in to riling up the mob of townsfolk, he knows to enter a scene in a wheelchair after being attacked and then just gets up and walks out of it when the shock wears off, and his entire scene with Victor Quartermaine xD. He monologues about the wererabbit and leaves pauses in to acquaint the lightning and thunder, and you can see him realizing that lightning crashes after every time they say "A bullet? (BOOOOOM) A bullet! (BOOOOOM)" and is content to just keep back and forth-ing to play with the thunder and lightning until Victor catches on and slams the shutters closed lol
funnily enough, the church window(that the rabbit smashes) depicts a holy knight slaying a dragon. So it would make sense for the Vicar of a church founded for a sainted monster slayer to have monster hunting manuals and equipment on hand as standard
Fun fact: This movie took 5 years to make and was the first stop motion movie to win an Oscar. The movie felt like an extended Wallace and gromit short but in a good way. I like how this movie shows the relationship between the duo. Gromit always goes out of his way to clean up Wallace’s mess because how much he cares about him. He’s like the father figure to him. This was a grand entertaining feature to watch. Also, I can’t wait to see the new Wallace and gromit movie set to be released this January 2025.
The smirk Quartermaine made is arguably scarier than the Were-Rabbit in general. He's willing to kill Wallace while disguising it as an act of heroism. Also, if Quartermaine returns, I can imagine Wallace becoming a Were-Rabbit in a rather serious moment of being out-of-character. You know you crossed Wallace's line when HE is weaponizing his inventions.
that would be cool if he wasn’t aloof to what was going on and did something about it, im hoping to see that in the new movie with Feathers coming back
9:12 Fun fact, in the danish version, it sounded like Wallace said "år" instead of "hour", which means year, so she thought he said they were coming in a year, making the "I can't wait that long" joke double layered as there's also a joke in her having a very mild reaction to the pest control people saying it will take them a year to even look at the problem
The irony of Katzenberg criticising Disney as soulless corporatism then trying to rip the soul out of a British classic. His real gripe with Disney was he wasn't in charge.
I'm from Brazil, I can confirm it, many people don't watched the original shorts and movies of Wallace and Grommit, but this one had an enormus success.
This movie was one of the main reasons I became an animator. I saw both this and the nightmare before christmas during my childhood, and they just stuck with me throughout my life, and years later, here I am
As much as I love this movie all these years later, one of the best jokes never made it into the movie proper: the police constable's name is Macintosh. P.C. Macintosh.
5:18 ish, yes that's the point about Mrs Mulch's false teeth. You can see as Mrs Mulch goes on ahead out of the door, Mr Mulch is looking hesitant with her teeth as if to say, "Do you want these or what?" before resorting to putting them in his own mouth instead and just going with it.
When I was a kid who grew up in South Texas I didn't realize Wallace and Gromit was a British animation. I don't remember how I watched but I remember watching it a lot as a kid. So when Curse of the Were-Rabbit trailers came out I remember being really excited and telling friends about it at school and they had no idea what I was talking about. I also remember being made fun of for wanting to watch it, sadly that's one of the things that taught me to not talk about my personal interests unless other people were talking about the same thing first. On the bright side my older brother took me to watch this movie when it first came out. We were never very close and he often bullied me, but him taking just the two of us to watch Curse of the Were-Rabbit was one of the few things the two of us did together that we weren't forced to do.
15:51 you say Wallace would probably design the lady rabbit this way, it works both ways because he is also the were-rabbit which is probably what in his mind inspired the look
Even as a kid I used to get goosebumps during that scene where the vicar reveals the wererabbit’s existence-- it really is a phenomenal moment. His fervent rant about how unholy and unnatural the creature is primes us for something, and then the "person-shaped hole" trope in the stained glass window. A cartoon effect normally used for laughs, but here it implies its form without directly revealing it. It gives us a very horror-esque idea in a very cartoony way-- so good.
This movie is extremely endearing to me for one reason. When I was much younger, me and my family went to an interim outdoor theater being hosted by a coastal town in Oregon. The weather was amazing and while we were waiting for the movie to begin I remember taking a moment to watch a young boy playing with a golden retriever puppy in the grass of a nearby field. This was easily the same year the movie came out...maybe 2007 ish. I'm fighting to have that kind of magic back in my life and sometimes it feels like I'm actually winning.
12:38 I love the subversion of expectation with the smooth camera to then rapidly moving it a tiny bit with the sound to suddenly imply that this is the monster's POV.
You missed a great detail of the transformation scene. Gromit locking the doors because he knows what's coming again playing into that Gromit knows but cannot communicate
This movie is my entire childhood. I had always loved Wallace and Gromit as a kid, and one time my parents surprised me and my brother with a DVD of this movie. It's a core memory for me
I'm American but I knew about marrows thanks to Beatrix Potter, and I remember when I saw (the American version of) the movie, I thought it was weird that they missed the opportunity for a pun about Gromit having "a splendid marrow." Glad to learn they didn't.
Glad you brought up Harvey, what an overlooked wholesome film. Shame so few stopanimations are made, it allows for both cartoonish and realistic writing while being an impressive medium.
I remember watching this as a kid at my neighbor’s house Halloween night. On my way home, I spooked pretty hard at a well timed animal noise after I said “there’s no such thing as were-rabbits…” Never sprinted faster in my life
"My hair is in your machine" might be the most entertaining joke I've ever heard! Like, I didn't blow out the windows with laughing, but it's just _so freaking good!_
No movie ever made me want to eat vegetables more as a kid than this one did. something about how they did the vegetables made them looks so damn appetizing. I always wanted to eat that carrot Gromit cut up.
Ok but can we also talk about how good the licensed game on Xbox was? Like surprisingly good. I love this movie and I remember having fun for hours running around the Wallace and gromit world
I was obsessed with this movie as a kid! I rewatched it again about 2 weeks ago and it’s still one of my favorite films ever. I feel like I can appreciate it now more as an adult who’s seen a lot of horror movies, but honestly I don’t know if I ever would have been as big of a horror film if it wasn’t for this movie. It’s a perfect film for kids wanting to get into horror!
I remember seeing this in the cinema when it came out and even as a kid i was blown away by the upgrade in quality with it's presentation. I mean seriously go and watch a grand day out and then were rabbit and you'll see what I mean instantly.
I literally just watched this film (for Halloween ofc 😂) and came straight here once I saw it on my recommended, and I didn't even realise those small details that you mentioned at 16:18 😭😭 But those details just make that scene even better ngl!! Great video too!! 😊
feeding rabbits nothing but carrots could actually kill them the sugar content in carrots is high meaning they should only be fed them rarely as a treat
a note on vengeance most fowl, why have they got McGraw being so emotive? like more so than usual? his sinister creepiness was bc he didn't emote at all, they've said so in interviews
I bet Were-Rabbit Wallace would’ve thrown that tree at Victor (thus killing him) if he hadn’t of noticed Gromit was dangerously close Victor (as he would’ve ended up killing him too and he could still recognise his friend).
Am I the only one who thinks Wallace isn’t an idiot? I always thought he was just a slow thinker or oblivious or ignorant in some cases, but never stupid.
I find it funny that Watership Down is still seen as the most disturbing animation ever when there's Fritz the Cat and that other one that's dealing with cats being experimented on and such (both of which have been reviewed by Saberspark). If you really read into Watership Down, it's actually more in a lesson about not losing yourself in stillness, conformity, and blind "ignorance". It's about triumph over trials and tribulations from your own kind and others. It's a fantastic movie, and though there are some startling parts, I don't think it's too much for the average 11 year old. As long as that kid is smart and emotionally secure, they'll be fine.
Most of where Watership Down's "most terrifying animated movie of all time" reputation comes from is that parents have for decades bought it to show to their young children thinking it's only going to be a cute rabbit movie that'll be fine for kids.
Fun Fact: I was only 14 and a half years old when I went to see Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit in theatres when it first came out and this is how I was first introduced to Wallace and Gromit.
omg i just notice that at the 7 min mark of this video the penut butter is called the middle age spread and right now wallace in the movie is the farther that getting old and the gromit is their 20 year old child that wants their parent to take better care of them selfs they put alot of effort into this movie
They held an exhibition at ACMI in Melbourne with all of Aardmans movie sets and OMG the sets were gorgeous 😊 there was something magical seeing the clay sets up close of this film, shawn the sheep & Pirates! (They had the ENTIRE SHIP from the Pirates! Film and OMG it was incredible and bloody huge!) Just... if you ever get to go to an exhibition of their stuff PLEASE check it out ❤
I remember a while ago, me and my brother were looking for something to watch and we found this movie, we were so excited 'cos it's been ages since we watched any wallace and gromit, only to be extremely disappointed when it started speaking in a language we didn't understand lol
I rewatched this movie with my best friend recently, and at the scene at 20:57 my friend said “oh, this is *so much worse* when I close my eyes..” and I couldn’t agree more 😂😂😂
Thanks for this Halloween review, this movie's got a fun little corner in my head after CN just randomly decided one day to air Were-Rabbit, Wrong Trousers, and Loaf and Death when I was a kid.
This is the best monster movie ever made. Well, aside from Abott and Costello Meet Frankenstein. Nothing can top that. Also, the twist of Wallace being the were-rabbit was really surprising. Great twist.
Thank you for solving the Mrs./Mr. Mulch teeth mystery. That bit has thrown me for years, I never noticed that Mr. Mulch offers the teeth to his wife momentarily.
This film terrified me as a kid ! Especially that scene with the vegetables in Wallace's room... I love it now, so happy to see some appreciation for it !
Fun fact: Wensleydale cheese was saved from bankruptcy after wallice said WensleyDale, in the first wallice and gromit, bc they thought the word would make wallice look toothy
Man! I couldn’t even make it all the way through the video! The way you describe everything puts me right back into the excitement I had when watching this as a kid! I’m gonna rewatch the movie and then come back!
I'll be frank, I feel like the transformation scene was single handedly what caused me to have a phobia of that sorta stuff going forward in life LMAO I do NOT do good with animal transformations nor body horror
Ah, this is one of my favorite movies of all time! Owned it on DVD! This was during a time where it was already common to watch my country's dub of a movie, and the VAs were honestly incredible. It's funny to hear folks sing the praises of so many special actors and VAs, when the voices I heard were of other people entirely, hehe. Also, that shot of Wallace and Hutch swapping mindwaves as he hopped around like a rabbit always spooked me a bit, ngl...
22:23 I was tariffed of this movie when I was a kid. Especially this scene. I would close my eyes every time it would happen. But now this is definitely one of my favorite movies! Stop motion is such a cool art form and I think it definitely needs more love! 🎥
When I was unable to use my eyes due to being swollen in the hospital after surgery, this movie was playing on the TV and I listened to it. It was 10/10 even without visuals
this movie was such a major part of my childhood! it's amazing to finally see someone talking about it because i swore for years that no one else had heard of it lol
Wallace and Gromit was one of the defining series that helped in crafting my sense of humor and now that my kids are old enough I think I'll show them the entire series as well
The one rhino that I dislike about this movie is how victor screams when his dog bites the bunny costume tail as he’s wearing it at the end. He wouldn’t even feel it..
I have such fond memories of this film from my childhood, it’s a beloved classic for my family! I’ve always thought it was brilliant! It’s funny and clever and the animation is amazing (but that’s a given considering it’s Aardman, their style is so distinctive and charming! Btw if you’ve never seen Star Wars visions, Aardman produced season 2 episode 4 and it’s gorgeous! It’s Star Wars in Aardman’s classic style, and it’s so cute and wholesome! Absolutely my fave of the whole season)
With this movie and Corpse Bride releasing within 2 weeks of each other.... which would you pick out of the two?
This one
Aardman takes the win for me
Both
Were-Rabbit is my favorite out of the two, hands down.
This movie :)
One of my favorite gags to this day is that the Vicar absolutely knows that he's in a horror film.

(BOOOOOM) A bullet! (BOOOOOM)" and is content to just keep back and forth-ing to play with the thunder and lightning until Victor catches on and slams the shutters closed lol
Makes sense that the Vicar would catch on to the intentions of higher powers!
funnily enough, the church window(that the rabbit smashes) depicts a holy knight slaying a dragon. So it would make sense for the Vicar of a church founded for a sainted monster slayer to have monster hunting manuals and equipment on hand as standard
Funny how Daz has realised that he can skyrocket his channel by worming the word "terrible" into literally as many video titles as possible.
XD
He has unlocked the "clickbait title can get more view" ability.
Yeah, it's a shame coz were-rabbit gets a bad reputation. It's actually a masterpiece in Animation. Daz seems to agree as well.
@@willbhowes It was not well-received?? That sounds horrible..

Guys. Two dogs in a plane? A dog fight? I can’t be the only one that got that joke…
OMG!
I'm so mad that i didn't get that joke till NOW!
That’s even a joke made in the film
Oh my god
It's still going over my head
9:12 Fun fact, in the danish version, it sounded like Wallace said "år" instead of "hour", which means year, so she thought he said they were coming in a year, making the "I can't wait that long" joke double layered as there's also a joke in her having a very mild reaction to the pest control people saying it will take them a year to even look at the problem

The irony of Katzenberg criticising Disney as soulless corporatism then trying to rip the soul out of a British classic. His real gripe with Disney was he wasn't in charge.
I like how the were-rabbit looks like a costume. Like how older/low budget films would just has a simple costumed man playing the monster
Very “early monster movie” vibes. Even the transition back to a human is very early monster movie
In Latin America it was called "Wallace and Gromit: The battle of the vegetables", yet it was still successful.
I guess they must eat there greens
@peet-janissen5838 I can't speak for the whole culture, but most of the people I know prefer meat since childhood.
@@Alejandroigarabide atleast healthier than sugar
The battle of the vegetables just reminds me of veg in armour and chain mail 😭
I'm from Brazil, I can confirm it, many people don't watched the original shorts and movies of Wallace and Grommit, but this one had an enormus success.
Wererabbit is such a culturally historic movie that I think I could recognise it from any frame
Could show me a piece of cheese from this movie and I'd know it.
Original title: Aardman's AMAZING Were-Rabbit Horror Movie...
Second title: Aardman's Not-TERRIBLE Were-Rabbit Horror Movie...

32:00 Oh dang. I never noticed they didn’t hide Wallace’s non-existent lower half in this scene. I won’t see this scene the same again now.
I never can look at that corner now
12:38 I love the subversion of expectation with the smooth camera to then rapidly moving it a tiny bit with the sound to suddenly imply that this is the monster's POV.

Calling curse of the were rabbit "not-terrible" is like calling beef wellington "technically edible"
They had to use CGI for liquid effects (Flushed Away, the gravy explosion in Chicken Run). It's inevitable.
Honestly, I’m genuinely shocked you of all people haven’t Reviewed this till now, But really glad you are
Hutch's deliver of the line "I am Wallace" when walking to the door kills me every time. So good!
Glad you brought up Harvey, what an overlooked wholesome film.

Almost certain that’s the reference he was making, because that sounded like the perfect cadence
I watched this movie so many times as a kid and even 20 years later, I say "veGetables...." the way Wallace does sometimes lol
I can't believe they tried to replace his voice actor with just a random celebrity voice actor, thank frick they changed it back

Not-terrible??? This is a masterpiece of modern art!!

This has always been my favourite Wallace And Gromit Animation out of all of them!
The scene were the vicar hears a burp and says “ Mrs Munge 😂😂
Fun fact, as a child, the title card and the loud thunder scared me more than the movie itself, i remember scrambling to skip it or just be terrified
even as an American, Wallace and Grommit were an icon to me as a kid through the mid to late 2000s and early 2010s.
31:41 only just notived the box saying 'may contain nuts' love it!!
That's funny about movies with "vegetable" in the title being unmarketable to kids.
I loved Curse of the Were-Rabbit. It even won the Best Animated Feature Oscar.
The number of ways this movie flipped off the big studio expectations made it worth the ticket price.
Wallace and Gromit was one of the defining series that helped in crafting my sense of humor and now that my kids are old enough I think I'll show them the entire series as well
I love this movie a real classic, can't wait for the new Wallace and Gromit movie too.
I don't know what's better, the visual gag with the bobby, or his arson joke.
The one rhino that I dislike about this movie is how victor screams when his dog bites the bunny costume tail as he’s wearing it at the end. He wouldn’t even feel it..
Philip (Victor's dog) has very powerful jaws.
It’s nice to see someone finally talking about this classic
I had never heard of Watership Down before, and you mentioning it piqued my curiosity.
thanks for that…
I love how this movie plays it completely straight, like a proper horror film.
15:17 and 15:35 are just insanely good shots. i love them
I'm just thankful this won best animated film of 2005.
I have such fond memories of this film from my childhood, it’s a beloved classic for my family! I’ve always thought it was brilliant! It’s funny and clever and the animation is amazing (but that’s a given considering it’s Aardman, their style is so distinctive and charming! Btw if you’ve never seen Star Wars visions, Aardman produced season 2 episode 4 and it’s gorgeous! It’s Star Wars in Aardman’s classic style, and it’s so cute and wholesome! Absolutely my fave of the whole season)
This was one of my fave movies back in the day i dont know why
