Мультфильм "Франкенвини" повествует о дружбе мальчика и его собаки. Пса зовут "Спарки". Спарки, погнавшись за мячом, погибает под колёсами автомобиля. Его хозяит, мальчик по имени Виктор, не может смириться с такой утратой, и намеревается оживить собаку. Ему это удаётся, но оживший труп Спарки убегает и терроризирует всю округу, пугает всех людей.

Просматривается параллель с произведением "Франкенштейн". Кроме того, некоторые моменты фильма напоминают художественный фильм "Кладбище домашних животных" Стивена Кинга, в котором хозяева домашних питомцев закапывают своих четвероногих друзей на кладбище, где якобы хоронили умерших индейцы. Но так как здесь идёт речь всё-таки о мультфильме, Спарки совсем не злой, а наоборот, очень даже дружелюбный и игривый пёс.

Объяснение:

Cartoon "Frankenweenie" tells about the friendship between a boy and his dog. The dog's name is "Sparky". Sparky, chasing the ball, dies under the wheels of the car. His owner, a boy named Victor, cannot accept such a loss, and intends to revive the dog. He succeeds, but the revived corpse of Sparky escapes and terrorizes the entire neighborhood, frightens all people.

There is a parallel with the work of "Frankenstein". In addition, some moments in the film are reminiscent of Stephen King's feature film "Pet Sematary", in which pet owners bury their four-legged friends in a cemetery where the deceased Indians were supposedly buried. But since here we are talking about a cartoon, Sparky is not at all evil, but on the contrary, a very friendly and playful dog.
