Starting with a foreword from Johnny and an introduction by Tim Burton the book offers an in-depth look at the history of the original TV series and the steps that led to the remake for the big screen.
Mark Salisbury, who‘s already familiar with Tim Burton’s visual world ( he’s also responsible for “Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street”, “Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride – An Invitation to the Wedding” and “Alice in Wonderland – A Visual Companion”) includes many interviews with cast and crew members you might already know from the DVD’s bonus material, but he also offers an a lot more detailed look at the production process: Tim Burton’s early sketches, makeup, costumes, prosthetics, stunts, special effects… For example did you know what Barnabas’ prosthetic fingers were made of or that Josette’s ghost was filmed in an underwater tank?
192 pages full of high-quality set photos and well-written information. Whether you’re a fan of the movie or Tim Burton’s work in general or simply love superb movie books: This is a must-have!
