Tim Burton's Academy Award-nominated black and white stop-motion homage to Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' is a remake of his 1984 short of the same name. The story follows a young boy called Victor (voiced by Charlie Tahan), who harnesses the powers of science to bring his beloved pet dog, Sparky, back to life - with unexpected and alarming consequences. The film also features the voice talents of Winona Ryder, Martin Short, Catherine O'Hara and Martin Landau.
