"One
of the biggest success stories of 2023 so far is how the filmmakers of
the expertly animated Lackadaisy pilot were able to crowdfund (through
Kickstarter) their daring idea then get it seen by over 9.5 million
people (and counting) on YouTube.
Lackadaisy with very strong early Don Bluth SECRET OF NIMH vibes tells a story of crime, romance, intrigue at a speakeasy of bootleggers in 1927 except the bootleggers, molls, criminals, heroes are all cats.
Reviving the kind of animation approach pioneered by Ralph Bakshi in his transgressive 1970's movies and by Don Bluth in his breakaway from Disney darker animated family films, the filmmakers of Lackadaisy have made an amazing pilot episode of animation that creates a third lane in features for darker, more adult yet totally entertaining animated fare."

When you’ve had your fill of CatVideoFest, join us for Mary Lambert’s effective and chilling adaptation of the Stephen King classic Pet Sematary. Dr. Louis Creed’s family moves into the country house of their dreams and discover a pet cemetery at the back of their property. The cursed burial ground deep in the woods brings the dead back to life — with “minor” problems. At first, only the family’s cat makes the return trip, but an accident forces a heartbroken father to contemplate the unthinkable. Unforgettably creepy with an outstanding performance and the best Maine accent in any King movie by “Herman Munster” Fred Gwynne.
