The Boxtrolls 1-Disc Box Set DVD

The Boxtrolls is an animated feature from 2014 that introduces a community of cardboard-clad underground tinkerers who scavenge the discarded mechanical bits of a Victorian-style city above and the orphaned human boy raised among them, only to find their quiet world threatened by an exterminator with grand social ambitions. The tone strikes a careful balance between gentle horror parody, warm coming-of-age drama, and quirky comic invention. Watching it feels like a meticulously handcrafted storybook with real emotional weight beneath the whimsy.
