Happy Halloween! The funnest holiday of the year (if you do it right). What better way to celebrate than with a video by the master of creepy himself--Tim Burton. The genius behind the Nightmare Before Christmas hit the world with his first stop-motion short back in 1982 when he was still working at Disney. Vincent is in black and white and narrated by none other than Vincent Price, the king of the horror genre and star of Burton's other masterpiece: Edward Scissorhands. The short may or may not be autobiographical but it definitely pays homage to the classics of the horror genre that inspired Burton, including the works of Edgar Allen Poe and films staring Price such as House on a Haunted Hill and The Raven.
And so ghouls and gals, enjoy Vincent, the diary of a 7-year-old twisted tormented soul.....
