Take this quiz and we’ll tell you which harrowing CGI Polar Express child you are

OOH, WE GOT IT!


The Polar Express is many things, but a visual masterpiece it is not. Every December, when it inevitably finds its way onto my screen, I can’t help but find it increasingly unsettling; the clunky dreamlike storyline, the peculiar characters and the even more peculiar action scenes (my sleep paralysis demon is Tom Hanks screaming “HAT CHACKLAT” over and over) all contribute to its weirdness, but it’s got to be the terrifying CGI graphics that take the biscuit.

This brings us swiftly onto the bizarre child cast of the film – you may wonder every year but wonder no more, for all you must do is take this quiz and we’ll tell you which nightmarish CGI child from The Polar Express you are.
