Synopsis:
Set in a 19th-century European village, this stop-motion animated feature follows the story of Victor (voiced by Johnny Depp), a young man whisked away to the underworld and wed to a mysterious Corpse Bride (voiced by Helena Bonham Carter), while his real bride Victoria (voiced by Emily Watson) waits bereft in the land of the living. Though life in the Land of the Dead proves to be a lot more colorful than his strict upbringing, Victor learns that there is nothing in this world - or the next - that can keep him away from his one true love. It's a tale of optimism, romance and a very lively afterlife, told in classic Burton style.

Charmed From The Grave - Corpse Bride review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
28/03/2009

Tim Burton's Corpse Bride unlike the Nightmare Before Christmas, actually sees Burton performing directorial duties. As expected it features his unique vision and flair. A bloke on the eve of his biggest day, soon falls foul to a corpse with dramatic and hilarious results. A real strength is the voice actors, superbly picked and each matches their onscreen persona marvellously. The Corpse Bride is a wonderful experience for all ages.
