Corpse Bride

CriticsCritics: 84
AudienceAudience: 7.6

In a 19th-century village, a nervous young man preparing for an arranged wedding accidentally makes a vow to a mysterious bride from the underworld. As he tries to return to the living world and the woman waiting for him, he encounters an unexpected new community and a tangled romantic predicament.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like offbeat fairy tales, sweet romance, and a darkly playful mood; Not for you if you want a realistic story or dislike macabre imagery, though it’s not especially scary.
