Movie Preview: Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie

If there was one man alive that I can name at the top of my head when prompted about who could be the master of things macabre and yet still make them charmingly loveable then Tim Burton it is. Frankenweenie is the latest animation from TIm Burton which tells about the heartwarming tale of a boy and his dog.

I can relate just how much pain it is to lose a beloved pet, young Victor was the same way. He sought to bring his dog Sparky back to life but with a few minor adjustments. Of course, Sparky was never the same dog that he loved and his problems came about when he managed to get out. The film appears to be in monochrome which is very true to Tim Burton’s style and as a break from the standard CGI movies, Frankenweenie is a stop-motion film rendered in 3d. The film’s voice cast will be lead by Winona Ryder, Martin Short, Catherine O’Hara, Martin Landau, Charlie Tahan and Atticus Shaffer.
