FRANKENWEENIE is a black-and-white
stop-motion animation film brought to you by the critically acclaimed
film director, Tim Burton.
Similar to his previous

Beetlejuice, etc), Frankenweenie too has a dark and gloomy theme to it's
storyline.
Victor
Frankenstein is an introvert boy who lived with his parents and dog,
Sparky in the small town of New Holland. Concerned over his son's lack
of friends, Mr Frankenstein wanted Victor to go outside to have a game
of baseball where he, miraculously, hit a homerun.
His moment of glory was shortlived, however, when Sparky dashed onto the road in pursuit of the ball and was hit by a car.
