IGOR Film Review - 18/1/09

Very much a mixed bag this one! I found the animation hard to get on with and can only presume that this film's failure at the Box Office was that it did not appeal to kids or adults either; and it is being rushed out to DVD in February this year. A couple of the characters stand out - But the animation was to 'way-out-there' and I didn't think much of the story.

Igor the manservant of the Count is fed-up of the stereotypical 'Igor The Manservant Role' and yearns to be an evil scientist himself in the kingdom of Malaria. After a couple of pet experiments go wrong ( The suicidal rabbit & the brain in a jar) he is determined to find a way to the top. After his master dies in a bizarre accident he takes over the mantle of the Count and pursues his destiny. Others however are equally determined to stop him!
