The FRANKENWEENIE Old School Horror Homage Trailer!
Nordling here.
I can't wait to see FRANKENWEENIE at Fantastic Fest in September, and Comic-Con crowds were apparently treated to an homage trailer that recalls all those great horror films of old. The response on Twitter and elsewhere was very positive - some were calling it a real return to form for Tim Burton, which makes me even more excited to see FRANKENWEENIE. If it's ED WOOD Burton coming back, that's all I needed to hear.
Here's the homage trailer that screened this afternoon, and yeah, I really adore it. Hopefully this may get some theater play.
FRANKWEENIE opens this October.

..and rightfully so- it looked like the next level of 'classic' Burton. this just looks kind of sad.

Sweeny Todd. Did no one else love that film?
-
you do realize this was based on burton's shirt film from the 80's. so this IS classic burton.
-
yes, i did love SWEENEY TODD. it's sweeney with an E, by the way
-
first sense that the movies gonna be good
-
Hilarious!

Burton doesn't cut trailers.
-
Brilliant trailer. The voice of the guy narrating it is pitch perfect in capturing the voice-overs in classic trailers. But...as a indication of the movie to come, I have a suspicion that once it moves from the story of a boy and his dog to rival school kids and bigger, badder, monsters it will lose the clever retro appeal and become just another "cute" kids movie.
-
is what I want Tim Burton doing. His stuff. Not re-imagining other people's stuff. Next, do a Pee Wee sequel and rule the fucking world. Seriously.
-
I have to say, that was absolutely brilliant. I haven't been fussed about this one - until now. Burton hasn't made a good film since Sleepy Hollow, so I'm now psyched he's finally back to form, because that was just a little slice of wonderful. Can't come soon enough!
