Corpse Bride 2005
Another one of those childhood classics that terrified me to the point of not revisiting it until I felt I'd matured enough. That was yesterday, and I'm 25. Nice, I'm sure I'll be able to watch The Exorcist by the time I'm 50.

For those of us who love escapism in film, this is just a dream come true.
