Long before he realized it, Burton was a director. Here is the preoccupation with death, the talent for thinking up extraordinary scenes, and an imagination rife with invaders from space ready to rain destruction upon suburbia. The look, feel and subject matter of Burton’s films are so distinctive they have become an adjective – Burtonesque. Describing what that word means is, I suppose, partly the endeavour of this book. Although, I’m not sure Burton himself entirely knows. Much of the time he isn’t even clear why he does things – it just felt right, he often says. Thus logic can be of secondary importance. Where do those horses come from in Planet of the Apes? And yet if you use the word Burtonesque, any film fan will know exactly what you are saying.

HAPPY HORRORS

At the height of his popularity, Paul Reubens never stepped out of character. On talk shows, during interviews and at public appearances, he remained Peewee Herman, quirky to the point of derangement, clad in an undersized grey suit, red bow tie, ‘declasse’ 1950s haircut, and what looked like lipstick – the MC of a Weimar-era nightclub spliced with Howdy Doody.

STRANGE HEROES

In 1978, when Tim Burton was still busily not fitting in at school, he took a trip to Comic-Con. It was still months before the opening of Richard Donner’s big-budget adaptation Superman: The Movie, but there, at the San Diego fan convention, the boy who would grow up to be a headline act was amazed to find Warner Brothers giving a slide-show presentation promoting their forthcoming blockbuster.

POETRY INTO PLOT

Tim Burton only made a sequel to Batman, because he wanted to make good on the first film. ‘There was a feeling I had hoped to get by doing the first Batman that I didn’t get,’ he admits. ‘I wanted another chance to capture that feeling.’

DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS

Study his trio of stop motion feature films, and you’ll discovery lines connecting them. They are all highly personal projects, spaced at distinct intervals throughout his career. Two of them are fairy tales, one a monster movie; perfect examples of the lightness with which Burton portrays the dark.

HEAD CASES

Only on a Tim Burton set could the fish be divas. For what would turn out to be Mars Attacks! most beguiling sequence, Lisa Marie’s mysterious stranger infiltrates the White House via Martin Short’s lusty press secretary Jerry Ross, transfixed by her torpedo breasts and gum chewing nonchalance. She is, of course, a Martian plant with her magnificent beehive hiding her giant This Island Earth-style brainpan, and her swishing gait, surging forward whenever Short’s back is turned, manages the remarkable feat of appearing exactly like the special effects.

TIME WARPS

It sounds a perfect marriage Burton and talking apes. A world turned upside down, where a human outsider stares dumbfounded at an unfamiliar natural selection.

JUST DESSERTS

‘Some adults forget what it was like to be a kid. Roald did not,’ Burton says, delighted to discover that early drafts of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory included a character named Herpes.

PECULIAR CHILDREN

They were like an alien invasion. In every front hall, every dentist’s waiting room, being sold at every drug store, these creepy children with big, big eyes stared out from their paintings.
