Tom Burton’s Corpse Bride Getting A ‘Spook-tacular’ 4K Upgrade

Next month  will be  20th Anniversary of Tim Burton‘s  ‘spook-tacular’ of the stop-motion-animated fantasy musical film Corpse Bride.

Returning to the painstaking stop-motion animation he employed with amazing success in The Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton presents Corpse Bride, a hair-raising legend based on a 19th-century Russian folktale.

Tim Burton co-directed with Mike Johnson in his directorial debut. The film is based on characters by Burton and Carlos Grangel, with the music composed by Danny Elfman.

The all-star ensemble voice cast features Johnny Depp as Victor Van Dort and Helena Bonham Carter as Emily, the corpse bride, along with Emily Watson, Tracey Ullman, Paul Whitehouse, Joanna Lumley, Albert Finney, Richard E. Grant, Christopher Lee, Michael Gough, Jane Horrocks, Enn Reitel, Deep Roy, Danny Elfman, and Stephen Ballantyne.

Tim Burton presents a hair-raising legend based on a 19th-century Russian folktale, in which a young man mistakenly weds a corpse while on a two-day trek to the village of his real bride-to-be. It is up to the groom’s flesh-and-blood fiancée, who has been pining for the arrival of her intended, to face her wraith-like rival and make peace with her by promising to live her dreams for her and by vowing to remember her always. Only then are the living bride and groom free to proceed with their own wedding ceremony in the warm-hearted fable Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride.
