Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)

Synopsis: Wallace and Gromit are humane rabbit catchers. Wallace develops a contraption that instills in the rabbits' minds the repulsion to carrots. At the same time, a huge monster starts destroying the vegetables in the neighborhood, jeopardizing the annual contest promoted by Lady Tottington. The lady's suitor takes the opportunity to impose his brutal approach to the problem, which consists in hunting the beast down and killing it.
Appraisal: A pale shadow of the brilliant early shorts, although it still has the captivating characters and the care for neat visuals and animation. The spark of originality is mostly gone though.
