The film uses black and white tones to create a horrible gothic atmosphere and to get closer to the original horror film related to "Frankenstan". In fact, it is a warm and childlike story, except that the weird man who was spliced together with the torn apart corpses has become a little "cheese dog". Weenie longed to be loved by everyone as before, but after being activated, he was already a "monster". Every time he met a terrified neighbor, he was at a loss and only went on a rampage, which caused more trouble. In order not to involve spoilers, I
highly recommend this movie because it is Tim Burton’s earliest Disney short film, and from this short film, you can also see many elements of future Burton movies, except for darkness. The visual tone of "Edward Scissorhands" and the group of neighbors attacked, and then the protagonist (boy and puppy) fled to the abandoned house to escape together, which directly affected the later setting of "Edward Scissorhands".
The cute puppy that came back from the dead is no longer a spliced Frankenstain in "Zombie Bride", but a skeleton, but the protagonist is reunited with it because of childhood memories, regardless of its "state." Love it equally. It is said that the joy of getting along with the puppy and its death were also one of the painful and beautiful memories of Tim Burton's childhood.
This children's film is no worse than Vincent's viewing value and research value. Friends who like Tim Burton must check it out when they are free.
