Summary:
Young filmmaker and scientist Victor Frankenstein lives with his parents and dog Sparky in the quiet town of New Holland. Concerned with his son's isolation, Victor's father encourages him to take up baseball and make achievements outside of science. Victor hits a home run at his first game, but Sparky, pursuing the ball, is killed by a car. Inspired by his science teacher Mr. Rzykruski's demonstration of the effect of electricity on dead frogs, a depressed Victor digs up Sparky's corpse, brings him to his makeshift laboratory in the attic, and successfully reanimates him with lightning.

Personal Ratings: 2.5
Even though the movie is in black and white, there was no problem telling what time of the day it is in the movie. There was nothing in particular that it liked or disliked. Though i think that they should have let the dog died in the end, because something like defying death is no suppose to happen, and anyone who does it would receive punishment. But since I think they are aiming at children, so, duh, they must have a happy ending. However, even though they are aiming it at younger kids, it's not something i think that the younger children would understand, even though they tried to make the meaning shallow and easy to understand. This show was a little goth for the little kids.
