Tim Burton's Corpse Bride is not unlike Tim Burton's other films. They're dark, a bit creepy, with predictably Burton-esque visuals, and are peppered with bits of macabre humor. It would not be outlandish to merely dismiss Corpse Bride as "just another Burton film." Alas, even though Burton's Gothic film-making formula hasn't changed much, one should not forget that Burton's signature style is ... read more

"I have seen a lot of people who like this movie, but I still don't think it gets quite as much recognition as it deserves. It's cute, funny and charmingly macabre. Maybe it's because I've always had my inner goth girl, but I loved this movie when I was younger. "
