Dir: Tim Burton
1984
****
Tim Burton was 26 when he directed the original Frankenweenie film. That is impressive. His passion and knowledge of old Black and White/B-Movies was evident and also impressive. Shelley Duvall, Barret Oliver, Jason Hervey, it's an 80's American TV extravaganza and brings about waves of nostalgia for me. In many ways I prefer the 'live action' version over the animated version. I like the animated version but I love the charm and simplicity of the original.
