Tim Burton Spooky Spectacular 35mm Marathon
Sunday, October 19, 2025, Million Dollar Theater
10a Frankenweenie (2012, dir by Tim Burton, Disney, 87mns, USA, 35mm)
We kick off with a Tim Burton matinee for the whole family. In 1983, Burton made a 30 minute short movie Frankenweenie about a boy who brings his beloved dog Sparky back to life after a tragic ball chasing car accident. 30 years later, Burton expanded the story into a stop motion feature many consider his most underrated movie. Full of engaged Burton touches and a hilarous riff on the James Whale 1930's Frankenstein movies. Bring the whole family for some Halloween fun. Then before or after go the Grand Central Market next door for delicious breakfast or lunch.
