New red-band and green-band trailers have been released for “The Spine of Night,” the hand-rotoscoped animated fantasy epic feature coming to cinemas, On Demand, and Digital HD on October 29th.
The film deals with the history of a land that never was and begins when an ambitious young man steals forbidden knowledge from a sacred plant. He falls to its darker temptations and in so doing, unleashes ages of suffering onto mankind.
As his power grows over the years, it falls to people of different ilk and cultures to attempt to stop him. Among those who stand against him are a daring tomb-robber, star-crossed lovers, a maniacal necromancer, winged assassins, and an undying guardian.
Richard E. Grant, Lucy Lawless, Patton Oswalt, Betty Gabriel, and Joe Manganiello all lend their voices to the film which serves as something of a throwback to the 1980s high fantasy genre and that style of animation.
Philip Gelatt and Morgan Galen King pen and direct the feature.
