Frankenweenie

In this 1984 stop-motion classic, a young boy named Victor Frankenstein uses his scientific expertise to revive his beloved pet dog Sparky after it's hit by a car, bringing him back to life in the most unconventional way possible. As Sparky wreaks havoc on his neighbors, who mistake the bolt-necked "monster" for a real creature, Victor must convince them that beneath its terrifying appearance lies a loyal friend he thought was lost forever. With its blend of sci-fi, horror, and comedy elements, Frankenweenie is both a parody of classic monster movies and an homage to the enduring power of love and friendship.
