Friday 9 July to Sunday 18 July, 2010 at ACMI

To coincide with Tim Burton: The Exhibition, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image presents Monsters, Ghouls & Melancholy Misfits, a film season assembling a constellation of actors, genres and motifs that have informed, inspired and enriched director Tim Burton’s wondrous stories and visual aesthetic.

The film season spans six decades – from German Expressionism to Grand Guignol, through stop-motion classics, ’50s sci-fi, British Hammer and studio-era Hollywood horror films, Vincent Price and Ray Harryhausen.
