Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
If someone laced Wallace and Gromit's stockpile of West Country cheeses with hallucinogens, they might start to show some of the free-associative abandon of the characters in this trippy debut feature...

Time Out
Bizarre and sophisticated enough for adults and children, A Town Called Panic makes you want to live in an upside-down house occupied by a horse.

That Shelf
Rating: 3/5 --
A heady and utterly unapologetic roller-coaster ride into a hyper-vivid, hyperactive world created from cheap children's toys.
Little White Lies
Rating: 4/5 --
A Town Called Panic's frenetic pace and bizarre set pieces are truly refreshing and a joy to behold.

CineVue
There's really very little to say about this film beyond that it's absolutely brilliant.
Hollywood Reporter
5 stars out of 5 -- [A] goofy, hilarious stop-motion fable....The real stars are the power of imagination and a keen, playful wit.
Box Office
The most frequent line of dialogue in this enchanting world is 'Oh, no!' One strange thing happens after another.
Chicago Sun-Times
Product Description:
This unusual feature (a French-Belgian-Luxembourgian co-production) stylistically recalls the work of Art Clokey (GUMBY, DAVEY AND GOLIATH), with its lead cast consisting entirely of stop motion-animated children's toys. The premise concerns two such toys -- Cowboy (Stéphane Aubier) and Indian (Bruce Ellison) -- who plan to buy a birthday gift for their friend Horse (the voice of Vincent Patar) but accidentally destroy his house. A series of wacky, often hallucinatory adventures ensues that finds the trio journeying to the center of the earth, wandering across icy tundra and discovering a strange aquatic world inhabited by oddball beings with pointed heads. Benoît Poelvoorde (MAN BITES DOG) provides one of the voices.
