Yahoo! has graced us stateside folk with our first look at the international trailer for the upcoming animated feature Paranorman.

We have written about Paranorman a few times on UTG now, so let me go ahead and allow the people paid to publicize the film explain the plot to you:

In “ParaNorman,” a small town comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee), who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he’ll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst, of all, grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits.

Sounds pretty badass, right? Did we mention Paranorman also features the voices of John Goodman, Jeff Garlin, Anna Kendrick, Casey Affleck, Leslie Mann, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Elaine Stritch, and Tucker Albrizzi, too? It does.

Click past the jump to view the international trailer. Paranorman opens in the US on August 17.
