Night of the Living Carrots (also known as Monsters vs. Aliens: Night of the Living Carrots) is a 2011 American animated short film produced by DreamWorks Animation and based on the film Monsters vs. Aliens. A sequel to the 2009 short, Monsters vs. Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space, the short follows the monster team (minus Ginormica and Insectosaurus) taking on a mutated carrot army that can mind control others. Dr. Cockroach determines that the only way to defeat them and free their victims is for B.O.B. to eat all of the carrots, which ultimately stops the invasion.
The short originally premiered in two parts exclusively on the Nintendo Video video service for the Nintendo 3DS system;[1] the first was released on October 13, 2011,[2] and the second five days later.[3] It eventually received a general release on August 28, 2012 as part of the Shrek's Thrilling Tales DVD[4] and DreamWorks Spooky Stories Blu-ray.[5]
