You like dogs? You like zombies? You like curly trees? Tim Burton has your number. Frankenweenie is apparently a stop-motion remake of his 1984 short about a kid who brings his dog back to life, Frankenstein-style, but updated with all those familiar Burton-esque touches he's accumulated over the years, including the voices of Martin Landau and Winona Ryder. For fans of black-and-white stop-motion IMAX movies, it just doesn't get any better than this.

The mystery of the real Heathcliff that Emily Brontë had in mind is given a new perspective in Allison Anders's seemingly super-stark retelling of Wuthering Heights.
