Page 10 November 2012 With the arrival of a popular holiday often comes the expectation of a themed movie. This year, Frankenweenie and Hotel Transylvania were two animated fi lms with Halloween spirit. Frankenweenie Director: Tim Burton Starring: Charlie Tahan, Catherine O’Hara and Martin Short Based on a short fi lm by the same director, Frankenweenie is not the best, but fun. Tim Burton’s latest fi lm follows young Victor Frankenstein (voiced by Tahan), whose dog, Sparky, is his best and only friend.

But with the school science fair approaching, there are a few kids willing to go to extreme measures to get their hands on something as big as the ability to resurrect the dead. So Victor has to keep Sparky a secret from his parents (O’Hara and Short) who might not understand, as well as his classmates who could use the method for sinister purposes, but it’s a challenge. With a record like Tim Burton’s, it’s dif fi cult to meet fans’ expectations. Unfortunately this newest one fell a little short. It isn’t bad, but it doesn’t quite live up to his past creations. However it is a great introduction to his work for the younger generation, and the kids who like this will be asking for more. One of the best parts of the movie is the black-and-white effect.
