A lost short film by Tim Burton resurfaced on the web last week, giving viewers one of the few chances to see it since its supposed only television airing on Halloween of 1983. The short adaptation of Hansel and Gretel is wonderfully strange and filled with plenty of eerie, Burtonesque shapes and sights despite coming early in his career and at a reportedly tiny budget of $116,000. Much of the films style is said to be a result of Burtons obsession with Japanese culture at the time.
