Machinarium Creator Production Designs Puppet Film

kukyI’ve been meaning to post this for quite a while, ever since I first heard about it from Amanita Design.

Jakub Dvorsky, from Amanita Design, production designed the feature film of puppetry and it looks fantastic, with hints of Pan’s Labyrinth and even old Henson films like The Dark Crystal. It’s directed by Jan Svěrák and is supposedly due out in May 2010, though I don’t know when we’ll see a subtitled version hit this side of the water.

Here’s a little blurb about it along with the trailer:

Kooky´s Return (Kuky se vrací) is a combined puppet and live action feature based on a child’s fantasy. A seven year old boy whose teddy bear Kooky has been thrown away wonders what his toy is up to in the big world out there, imagining Kooky as he tries to find his way back home.

    That is AWESOME! I love it. I’ll need the subtitled version as well, but I will have to make sure and pick that one up as soon as I see it. I’d prefer more movies like this than CGI. I still watch The Dark Crystal every now and then.
