Frankenweenie is a 1984 featurette directed by Tim Burton and co-written by Burton with Leonard Ripps, for Walt Disney Pictures under its Buena Vista subdivision. It is both a parody and homage to the 1931 film Frankenstein based on Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus. Burton later directed a feature-length stop-motion animated remake, released in 2012.
