Igor's Story And A Discussion of Some Of the Other Characters In the Movie
Picture by Pop Candy.
Are you somebody or nobody? In Malaria, where Igor takes place, there are important evil scientists and there are unimportant hunchbacked assistants.
Meet Igor, an unusual inventor who sets out to prove himself at the annual Evil Science Fair. He enlists the help of two friends -- Scamper (a rabbit from the lab) and Brain (who actually is not all that brainy.) His plan? To create the greatest invention (better than anything that has been done before) and take the top prize.
Of course, someone has to get in the way. Enter Dr. Schadenfreude. His plan? To steal Igor's invention and conquer Malaria. Naturally, it will be up to Igor and his friends to stop him.
A funny, animated story of unlikely heroes! Looking for a Halloween movie to watch with your family? This one is going to be fun and perfectly timed for Halloween viewing this year!
Igor the Movie is being released
on DVD and on blu-ray
on January 20, 2009.
Igor
Voice supplied by John Cusack.
Igor - Gifted and brilliant born hunchbacked in Malaria and, therefore, forced to become an Igor. Igor creates his best creation - an evil monster but unfortunately the monster does not want to be evil! She actually wants to act! Igor's voice was supplied by John Cusack.
Picture by Gentleman of Sophistication and Refinement.
Scamper
Voice provided by Steve Buscemi.
Scamper - is a 'road kill' rabbit that Igor restored to life giving him both super-intelligence and immortality but Scamper doesn't want to live! Scamper's voice was provided by Steve Buscemi.
Brian the Brain
Voice supplied by Sean Hayes
Brain - was also invented by Igor. He is a 'brain-in-a-jar' that is not quite all there -- he wants to help but isn't quite able to. "If you're looking for something to appease both sexes, it's got both action for the man, and romance for the lady."

Eva
Voice supplied by Molly Shannon.
Eva - built by Igor as his entry into the Evil Science fair, she isn't, unfortunately, evil and she actually wants to be an acress. Jaclyn
Voice supplied by Jennifer Coolidge.
Dr. Glickenstein
Voice provided by John Cleese.
"Loved this film. What a great ensemble cast. I loved everyone!
Steve Buscemi did a great job as a suicidal rabbit and had great chemistry with the "slow" Brain (Sean Hayes).
John Cusack was as adorable as ever.
Eddie Izzard was a hoot and Arsenio Hall was HILARIOUS! Welcome back Arsenio.
Jennifer Coolidge is a favorite of mine and she did a great job with her characters.
Go see it. It is a really nice suprise. Oh, and great music."

King Malbert, King of Malaria
Voice supplied by Jay Leno.
King Malbert is the King of Malaria and is both just and wise%u2026or maybe then again he isn't. He pretends to be your friend and to care%u2026but he doesn't. This politician doesn't always tell the truth. Jay Leno provides King Malbert's voice. Dr. Schadenfreude
Voice provided by Eddie Izzard.
"If you like your humor on the crispy side, you'll probably enjoy this quick zing of animated spunk. Full of pitch-black jokes, it's sort of like The Nightmare Before Christmas's quirkier, less popular baby brother."

Igor Was Written By Chris McKenna
Who used his love of Frankenstein to create this movie.
Traditionally, Igor (sometimes spelled Ygor) refers to a hunch-backed assistant or butler to a villain like Dracula or a mad scientist. We are perhaps most familiar with Igor from Frankenstein and Van Helsing.It was from Frankenstein that Chris McKenna took his inspiration for Igor. He decided to turn things around with the hunchbacked lab assistant the brilliant one and a fake evil genius.

Yes, McDonalds did a line of Igor toys and I just discovered it because it is in the United Kingdom and not North America. If you consider bidding on any of these Igor McDonalds figures, make sure that the seller is willing to ship to you, wherever you may be!
Fetching RSS feed... please stand byThe Movie Mom Gives Igor The Movie A Nice Big 'B'
We love the Movie Mom, if you are a parent looking for sound movie advice read her excellent movie and DVD reviews!
The Movie Mom gives this movie a B and recommends it (and this is the important part) for children in grades four to six. It is rated PG for some thematic elements, scary images, action and mild language. The Movie Mom goes further to explain the elements as follows.
In terms of profanity, she says there is mild schoolyard language. In terms of nudity and or sexual elements, there are some kisses and some manipulatively seductive behavior. There is no drug or alcohol content. Finally, in terms of violence and scariness, she says that there is "macabre humor involving evil scientists, 'comic' suicide attempts by immortal character and humorous but scary and grotesque images."
I think her review sounds good, although I have yet to see the movie. She goes a little further to explain the situations that many other reviewers have only eluded to. If you are a parent often looking for movie advice, consider using the Movie Mom's reviews.
The Movie Mom always recommends discussion points from every movie she recommends. In this case, she suggests:
Why did these characters want to be evil?
Why did Eva want to be an actress?
Do you think everyone has a 'bad bone?'
Talk about what the name Schadenfreude means.
She also always recommends other movies that you and your family will enjoy if you like this one. In this case, she recommends 'Sky High,' 'The Nightmare Before Christmas,' 'Monster House,' and 'Shrek'
If you are a parent and you are looking to read an excellent review, I highly recommend the Movie Mom's. Find her reviews at The Movie Mom and her Igor review at Movie Mom's Igor Review .
If you read just ONE review, make it this one!

This is a great movie. We all loved it. We have watched it again and caught funny things we missed the first time around. Not too scary for small children, not really scary at all. Highly recommended. We are disappointed that there are no toys, my daughter would love them.
