Burton was responsible for directing family favorites like "James and the Giant Peach,""Pee Wee's Big Adventure" and the twisted holiday tale, "A Nightmare Before Christmas." He worked with Johnny Depp on the unforgettable classic, "Edward Scissorhands," bringing together the real world with the mysterious. In "9," Burton imagines an animated post-apocalyptic place where humanity has failed due to the malfunctioning of The Great Machine - the device that controls the planet's machinery. Before their demise, scientists roused their creations - a group of "stichpunk" creatures, numbered one through nine. Their mission is to defeat the remaining machines by which humans were defeated. Fans of otherworldly narratives may want to consider picking up Burton's "Planet of the Apes." This film about survival may help viewers get in the mood for "9." However, if animated movies are more your preference, "Corpse Bride" is a must-see. Using similar technology and graphics as "A Nightmare Before Christmas," this film about a corpse who just wants to get married features the voices of Helena Bonham-Carter and Johnny Depp Featured Titles: Tim Burton's Corpse Bride Full Frame DVD $5.99 Edward Scissorhands 10th Anniversary Edition; Full Frame DVD $10.99 Pee-Wee's Big Adventure DVD $5.99 Planet of the Apes USA Blu-ray Disc $9.99
