Grizzly and Detective Bill Stork, investigate a domestic disturbance

Based on the Little Red Riding Hood folktale,
structurally, it borrows from the films Rashomon and The Usual
Suspects, as well as frequently intertwining various plots. The film's
setting uses the same type of anachronistic and satirical mixing of
modern and fantasy culture as the Shrek films. It is 80 minutes long
and is rated PG for mild action and thematic elements. A twenty-two
minute behind the scenes video podcast is available for free in iTunes.
A sequel to the film, titled Hoodwinked 2: Hood vs. Evil is currently
in the making and is expected to be released in 2010.
