Vincent (1982)
9/10
early Tim Burton
19 January 2011
Tim Burton, soon to be famous as the silver screen's main purveyor of the occult, directed this fascinating short film about a boy's fantasies of being Vincent Price (who narrates). Much of the movie consists of bizarre images, showing Tim Burton's twisted sensibilities. One gets the feeling that Burton got some influence from Edgar Allan Poe.

So yes, "Vincent" is the precursor to what would happen in "Frankenweenie", "Beetlejuice", "Edward Scissorhands", "Ed Wood", "Mars Attacks" "Sleepy Hollow", "Big Fish", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Sweeney Todd" and "Alice in Wonderland". And a good one at that! I definitely recommend it. You're sure to enjoy it.
