Movie
This was the feature-film debut of director Tim Burton. Having not seen this film in over 10 years, I forgot alot of the bizarre, yet very funny sequences from the film. Alot of Burton's effects and sets can be found in some of his other films, particularly BEETLEJUICE and EDWARD SCISSORHANDS. The movie was shot on a small budget, so the filmmakers had to do simple, which worked out great.
Disc
My favorite thing about the whole dvd is the anamorphic transfer. This film has never been presented in widescreen until now. The look of the picture is simply gorgeous. The film is almost free of any specks, though there are a few spots. This film has never looked better and it's a disc that to show off. Burton's paintbrush shines bright, with strong colors. The audio is also a surprise. It's been remastered in a brand new 5.1 mix and it sounds terrific. Bass isn't needed here, but everything else is put to good use, especially Elfman's unforgettable score. Warner Brothers has given new life in a 15 year old film. Bravo.
