Barnyard? getting a little loose with the definition of “genre” here, aren’t we? I thought the same thing when “Over the Hedge” was bolded too.
Talking animals.
Almost (and I stress almost) all animated features would fit into the fantasy/fable genre. Kyle is right – “Talking Animals” – can’t get much more “fantasy/fable genre” than that.
I just saw The Descent and it is really great! Not entirely original but it’s really well put together creature thriller type flick. They hold the tension beautifully, and I was at the edge of my seat well before the monster even showed up. Check it out.
