Synopsis
Set in a 19th century European village, young Victor is whisked away to the underworld and wed to a mysterious Corpse Bride, while his real bride, Victoria, waits bereft in the land of the living. Though life in the Land of the Dead proves to be a lot more colorful than his strict Victorian upbringing, Victor learns that there is nothing in this world, or the next, that can keep him away from his one true love.

Feature animation directorial debut for Mike Johnson.
Film employs stop-motion animation rather than the more traditional cel animation technique. Unlike the latter, which is two-dimensional, stop-motion is three-dimensional and involves the use of miniature sets and puppets that are painstakingly staged and photographed frame by frame. The lead puppets cost about $30,000 each to produce.
