This animated (clay-mated?) film stars Wallace and his loyal dog Gromit, who as a team form Anti-Pesto Humane Pest Control, dedicated to keeping the vegetables safe from those who would eat them prior to the giant vegetable-growing contest, held annually on the gounds of Tottington Estate.
In practice, this means that they catch rabbits before they have a chance to eat people's vegetables, but they don't kill the rabbits. Instead, they keep them in pens beneath their house. That generally is okay, but now something has changed.
One day, Wallace decides to use his technological skills to create a mind-control device that will remove the desire from the rabbits to eat the vegetables, and that works really well, except he puts his foot up while he reads the paper, and that moves the lever which reverses the device and it performs a sort of mind-meld between him and one of the rabbits. This in turn creates the were-rabbit, that begins to terrorize the town (and the townsfolk).
Unfortunately it also does some serious damage to the credibility of Anti-Pesto, for they are unable to stop it, and the damage done in the mind meld doesn't help things either. What ensues is a genuine donnybrook, as everyone tries to keep their giant vegetables safe until the contest happens.
Rated G, but there is a good bit of comic violence, and older kids will notice a decent amount of double entendres as well. The younger crowd, and those not paying attention, will likely miss them entirely.
