Igor
Pull the switch and help Igor become this year’s inventor extraordinaire! Don’t get the hump this half-term and have fun hanging out with the noble science assistant experimenting on some mad-cap lab antics to out manoeuvre the nasty nemesis, in this tale of re-invention. Momentum Pictures unveils IGOR on DVD 2 February 2009.
This hilarious animated comedy follows lowly scientist’s assistant Igor (JOHN CUSACK), an inventor pushing weird science to the extreme hoping to make a difference to the lives of all the subservient science hunchbacks. Bubbling with humour and sparky electric energy plus the addition of the unlikeliest of hero’s, IGOR has the perfect formula of pop, bang and fizzle for all the family this half term.
Bright and boldly directed by ANTHONY LEONDIS (LILO & STITCH 2), Igor is a fun-filled, action-packed comedy celebrating the underdog. The stellar voice cast includes JOHN CUSACK (HIGH FIDELITY), EDDIE IZZARD (THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: PRINCE CASPIAN), JOHN CLEESE (FAWLTY TOWERS), SEAN HAYES (WILL & GRACE) and STEVE BUSCEMI (MONSTERS INC.).
In the land of Malaria, you are either a somebody or a nobody. The biggest somebodys are the evil scientists and the nobodies are their loyal hunchback assistants. But one unlikely inventor is about to change everything….
Meet Igor, a talented hunchback who’s determined to prove his worth at the annual Evil Science Fair. With help from his wise-cracking sidekicks Scamper (BUSCEMI), a grumpy lab rabbit, and the not so brainy Brain (HAYES), he plans to create the greatest invention the world has ever seen and win first prize. However the fiendish Dr Schadenfreude (IZZARD) is also making plans: to steal Igor's crazy creation and take over all Malaria. Can Igor and friends stop him and truly save the day?
Igor is released on DVD on 2 February.
