Plot Synopsis

Corpse Bride carries on in the dark, romantic tradition of Tim Burton's classic films Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas Set in a 19th century European village, this stop-motion, animated feature follows the story of Victor (Johnny Depp) a young man who is whisked away to the underworld and wed to a mysterious Corpse Bride (Helena Bonham-Carter) while his real bride, Victoria (Emily Watson) waits bereft in the land of the living.

Though life in the Land of the Dead proves to be a lot more colourful 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 after life, told in a classic Tim Burton style.
