8:15 p.m., Sat.1, Die Monster AG, animated film
The two monsters James P. “Sulley” Sullivan and Michael “Mike” Glotzkowski work for the utility company in their hometown of Monstropolis. This generates energy with the screams of children, which are gained by the “scarers” employed there. This job is not without its dangers, since contact with the children is dangerous for monsters and entails strict decontamination measures. The two are on the verge of breaking the company’s scream record when, through an unfortunate coincidence, a child enters the world of monsters.
