About This Movie

Frankenweenie is a 1984 horror and family film directed by Tim Burton. Its leading cast includes Shelley Duvall, Daniel Stern and Barret Oliver. It runs for 30 minutes.

Synopsis

When young Victor's pet dog Sparky (who stars in Victor's homemade monster movies) is hit by a car, Victor decides to bring him back to life the only way he knows how. But when the bolt-necked "monster" wreaks havoc and terror in the hearts of Victor's neighbors, he has to convince them (and his parents) that despite his appearance, Sparky's still the good loyal friend he's always been.
