The films are creature features that bring classic sensibilities to kids. In the case of Tim Burton's stop-motion black-and-white "Frankenweenie," which opens Oct. 5 from Disney, the movie embraces the Universal horror films of yore. Based on his 1984 live-action short film, Burton's "Frankenweenie" revolves around a boy named Victor Frankenstein who uses the power of science to bring his dog Sparky back to life. Producer Allison Abbate said with "Frankenweenie," what they tried to do with it was to "re-create the excitement of Tim and I and the other filmmakers had when we saw those movies". Their hope is that it will spark kids to have a deeper interest in it.
This article is important, because i thought it was cool how the hope of "Frankenweenie" was to bring those horror films to a new generation of people. It caught my eye, because i like how this film is in black and white just like an old classic film. The impact of this article on me as a student is great. I love their ideas they put in this film, and how classical it is. As a future filmmaker, it greatly influences me on how unique and interesting your film should be, and how much effort you have to put into it to become successful. Questions that come up is, Will this movie get a lot of viewers? What made the director come up with a film like this??
i love that their trying to repackage the movie of Frankenstein to a new generation
