    Here are a few new character images from Tim Burton’s upcoming black & white animated film, Frankenweenie.

    From creative genius Tim Burton (Alice in Wonderland, The Nightmare Before Christmas) comes Frankenweenie, a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life—with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor’s fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new “leash on life” can be monstrous. The talented voice cast includes: Catherine O’Hara, Martin Short, Martin Landau, Charlie Tahan, Atticus Shaffer, Robert Capron, Conchata Ferrell and Winona Ryder.

    Frankenweenie releases in U.S. theaters on October 5, 2012. Visit the official site for the film here. See the other images after the jump…

    1. As always, visuals are never a problem for a Tim Burton movie. It’s usually just everything else.

    2. This is the last chance I’m giving Burton to deliver a decent film. I still have hopes for this movie (even though I probably shouldn’t), mainly because it feels like this is a more personal story for Burton, and those are where he tends to be more successful. But even that’s a question mark. I’m really hoping this one will be good.
