- 2019 Annecy International Animated Film Festival - NOMINEE (Best Feature)
- 2019 Danish Film Awards WINNER! (Best Song, Best Adapted Screenplay and more!)
- 2019 Zulu Awards WINNER! (Best Feature)
- Don't let the amazing animation fool you, this is a movie that looks like a movie for kids but its humor and content (profanity, violence, sexual innuendo, crude humor, adult themes, frightening & intense scenes) is better left for teenagers and adults!
- Adapted from best selling book, this acclaimed, award-winning animated cult smash has delighted teenagers and young adults with over $2,000,000 in worldwide box office and a sequel!
- Recommended for fans of 'Sausage Party', 'South Park', 'Family Guy' and Adult Swim animation! This one is NOT for the kiddies, but adult fans of animation are going to love it!
Press Quotes
Checkered Ninja lies somewhere between a clever coming-of-age cartoon and a racy comedy more suitable for a slot on Adult Swim... Humor definitely dips into R-rated territory.
—The Hollywood Reporter
Checkered Ninja straddles the line between [family-friendly and NSFW], adding plenty of crude language into the usual mix of fart jokes and groin hits.
—Movie Line Online
I really liked this film, as it has a fun animation style and doesn’t take itself too seriously.
—Bands About Movies
Checkered Ninja is that wild blast of unexpected freshness from the “kid adventure” genre. Recommended.
—A.W. Kautzer, The Movie Isle
