Tim Burton brings one of his early short films, Frankenweenie, to life once more in his full-length remake of the same name.

The film centers on young Victor Frankenstien, who attempts and soon succeeds in bringing his animal companion -- aptly named Sparky -- to life, only to face some serious consequences (as anyone flirting with life and death always discovers).

Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Martin Short, and Martin Landau star in the animated Disney film, due in theaters October 5, 2012.
