Eraserhead For Kids

"I liked it very much - it has a genuine surreal sensibility; the script is funny; it's not just full of celebrity voiceovers" - Mark Kermode, BBC Radio 5 Live

Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs - a 2009 animated family film that first introduced the world to the work of Lord and Miller. Mark Kermode enjoyed it very much, especially the sequence in which the trussed-up oven chickens begin dancing, which he thought was very David Lynch. And probably wouldn't happen either.

At Mark's recommendation, Simon Mayo took child 3 to see it, albeit in Three'd, and both enjoyed it very much - Joe considering it "the weirdest thing I've seen in a long time."
