43 Frankenweenie (Feb 12)

Tim Burton's short animated, stop animation take on M. Shelley's life and death science horror classic blown up to a full feature film now nominated for an animation Oscar. Its an animated film in black and white and the charm is just amazing. Burton is an imaginative and creative story teller and the score captures the flow of the story and drama of this childhood tale.

The classic tale names are taken here and a tribute to the author in one of the dead pets of the children, a dead turtle. The details are entertaining and truly a Burton masterpiece and always has that glitch of dark thrill and humor.

As said, well written and remarkably entertaining with great effects, production design and cinematography.
