Short description

Vincent Malloy is a young boy who does not fit in with other children. He is fascinated by the actor Vincent Price and the horror films Price appeared in, and he retreats into elaborate daydreams shaped by that world. His mother grows annoyed with his morbid imagination, and the fantasies increasingly take hold of him.

Released in 1982, Vincent is a six-minute animated short made by Walt Disney Productions and Buena Vista International. It was written and directed by Tim Burton, the first of the 22 films he has directed in chronological order, ahead of Frankenweenie in 1984. Rick Heinrichs produced. Vincent Price narrates the film, voicing the story in verse.

On TMDB the short holds a rating of 7.8 out of 10 from 946 votes.
