Anyone know any child friendly zombie films?

[NotUmbongoUnchained]

DD is obsessed! Trying to find something child friendly.

How old?

There is a Disney film called zombies I think. It's really good, not scary

Sorry I posted early. She’s 4, but could be aimed for slightly older.

ParaNorman, might be a bit scary for very small dc though.

There's a new one on sky just now called zombillenium it's about a theme park run by monsters it was ok not too scary.

Surely that’s an oxymoron? How can a 4yo be ‘obsessed’ by zombies?!

Coraline is a bit zombie like, they have buttons eyes if I remember correctly.

What about corpse bride?

I can't confirm that either of them are actually age appropriate because I haven't seen them in years.

She’s seen Coraline, Corpse Bride, NBC, Paranorman, Goosebumps, Pirates of the Caribbean.

I take it Hotel Transylvania won't cut it?

(The ones you mention she's seen would scare the shit out of my seven year old! )

No idea how age appropriate as I’ve not seen it but I keep seeing adverts for Hotel Transylvania 3, which looks like a kids movie with classic monsters so there might be a zombie in it. Certainly a mummy and vampires. I assume there were also Hotel Transylvanias 1 and 2. 😆

I saw the thread title thought the child was a lot older and had a few to recommend. Not sure I'd recommend any of them to a 4 yo though!

Have you been on commonsensemedia.org? If you type 'zombies' in the search bar and filter it to films then it should show you a load with suggested age rating and details of content etc. I find it an invaluable site generally when trying to decide what to watch with the kids. It's hard to suggest anything off the cuff because it sounds like your DD is nails - some of those like Coraline and Paranorman freak me right out!

I think I watched too much walking dead with her when I was on maternity leave

She’s a real Wednesday Adams.
We’ve gone for Zombillenium!

Well that got turned off quickly too boring!

Hocus Pocus?

Hocus pocus has been done! That was one of the first ones I got her to watch

Disney's Frankenweenie?

My neice loves nightmare before Xmas if that cuts it.

Haven’t seen frankenweenie yet but haven’t got it available. Nightmare before Christmas is a fave here, even with my whimpy son!
We’ve put paranorman on again, but she’s complaining it’s not scary enough.

Frankenweenie was also directed by Tim Burton so if she loves Corpse Bride and Nightmare before Christmas it could be a winner.

sooty does evil dead 2

My DD loves films like these when she was 3 and 4. Coralline was a form favourite despite scaring me shitless! I guess they see things in a different way... I also remember being obsessed with spooky stuff around the same age...

She’s almost 6 now and everything scares her

I’m really interested to see how far I can push her but obviously don’t want to actually scare her

Witches, beetlejuice,

The Witches frightens the life out of me
