While exploring her new house, Coraline finds a small door that leads to an alternate version of her reality where her parents are fun and attentive and where everything is magical and wonderful. She is constantly bored and unhappy and her parents do not give her the attention she wants. The PremiseĬoraline is a little girl who moved into a new house with her parents. Before going into the details of the movie, let’s look at its general premise.
#Newest film coraline movie
The first scene of the movie sums up what will happen during the entire movie: The programming of a young girl by a sadistic handler. The creation of the alter persona is symbolically complete. The doll is then refilled by the handler and made to look like Coraline. If one examines this scene closely, “with eyes to see”, it symbolically (and creepily) depicts how MK slaves are taken, traumatized, and programmed by a handler–represented throughout the movie by a metallic hand. It shows a pair of creepy metallic hands transforming an old doll into a new one. In fact, the very first scene of the movie is basically a “Mind Control 101” summation of the entire process. And, for those who know about Mind Control symbolism, the movie goes even deeper: It symbolically depicts the process of programming of a mind control slave at the hands of a manipulative handler (if you have no idea what I’m talking about, read the article Origins and Techniques of Monarch Mind Control). Part of the movie’s appeal is its simple, child-friendly premise interlaced with twisted imagery and psychological depth.
However, unlike 9, Coraline received rave reviews and almost universal praise for its story and visuals. Coraline was the first animated movie released by Focus Pictures, the same company that later released 9, another animated movie with a dark underlying meaning (read the article about it here).
