This is the trailer for A Town Called Panic, directed by Stéphane Aubier and Vincent Patar, starring Stéphane Aubier, Jeanne Balibar, Nicolas Buysse, Véronique Dumont, Bruce Ellison, Christine Grulois and Frédéric Jannin. Animated plastic toys like Cowboy, Indian and Horse have problems too. Cowboy and Indian's plan to surprise Horse with a homemade birthday gift backfires when they destroy his house instead. Surreal adventures ensue as the trio travel to the centre of the earth, trek across frozen tundra and discover a parallel underwater universe where pointy headed (and dishonest!) creatures live. Each speedy character is voiced - and animated - as if their very air contains both amphetamines and laughing gas. With panic a permanent feature of life in this papier mache town, will Horse and his girlfriend ever be alone?...

Directors: Stéphane Aubier, Vincent Patar Writer: Stéphane Aubier, Vincent Patar Starring: Jeanne Balibar (Voice), Nicolas Buysse (Voice), Véronique Dumont (Voice) Welcome to a town where panic is the prevailing emotion ("Oh, no!" is spoken more than any other line of dialogue).

Their neighbors are a gruff farmer named Steven (voiced by Benoît Poelvoorde) and his wife Jeanine (voiced by Véronique Dumont). Other townspeople include: Madame Longree (Jeanne Balibar) – a horse with a name – who teaches music lessons to the younger inhabitants of town; and the mere figure of order, Policeman (voiced by Frédéric Jannin), who dances better than he polices.

A Town Called Panic is one of those films, and although it definitely goes a little further off the beaten path, it will likely appeal to some of the more adventurous animation addicts out there. If you are willing to take a chance on a manic and borderline nonsensical journey to the center of the earth and back, you just might find magic in this soon-to-be cult classic.
