《Vincent》最早(zao)問世(shi)在1982年，片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)長只有5分多鐘，是(shi)蒂姆·波(bo)頓(dun)在迪(di)斯尼(ni)的(de)(de)早(zao)期作品，講(jiang)的(de)(de)是(shi)一個(ge)叫Vincent的(de)(de)小(xiao)(xiao)男孩，幻想(xiang)(xiang)自己是(shi)一名(ming)(ming)著(zhu)名(ming)(ming)的(de)(de)恐(kong)怖片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)演(yan)員(yuan)，飾演(yan)將(jiang)妻子活(huo)埋(mai)后(hou)不堪(kan)精神重(zhong)負的(de)(de)兇手。現實與幻想(xiang)(xiang)不斷交(jiao)錯形(xing)成(cheng)戲(xi)劇張(zhang)力(li)，小(xiao)(xiao)男孩在自己幻想(xiang)(xiang)的(de)(de)愛倫.坡式(shi)結尾(wei)中(zhong)“死去(qu)”。這個(ge)叫文森(sen)特的(de)(de)小(xiao)(xiao)男孩很孤(gu)獨，他的(de)(de)腦子里充滿了(le)各式(shi)各樣的(de)(de)古怪而新奇的(de)(de)念(nian)頭(tou)，但卻(que)受到成(cheng)人社會的(de)(de)壓抑，他陷入到深深的(de)(de)孤(gu)獨之(zhi)中(zhong)，活(huo)在冥想(xiang)(xiang)中(zhong)那充滿鬼(gui)怪的(de)(de)世(shi)界里。這部短(duan)片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)可以(yi)(yi)說奠定了(le)蒂姆·波(bo)頓(dun)以(yi)(yi)后(hou)動畫電影的(de)(de)基調，包(bao)含了(le)他標志性的(de)(de)所(suo)有元素和歌特式(shi)的(de)(de)風格。哥特式(shi)的(de)(de)電影場景(jing)，哥特式(shi)的(de)(de)狗，哥特式(shi)的(de)(de)孩子，戀尸癖，埋(mai)葬的(de)(de)新娘，所(suo)有的(de)(de)特征都表達(da)的(de)(de)淋漓盡致。配音也呈現了(le)蒂姆·波(bo)頓(dun)動畫電影中(zhong)人物特有的(de)(de)語(yu)言節奏。整個(ge)短(duan)片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)有著(zhu)讓人一見難忘的(de)(de)黑色狂想(xiang)(xiang)氣氛。（為(wei)本片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)配音的(de)(de)正是(shi)著(zhu)名(ming)(ming)恐(kong)怖片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)演(yan)員(yuan)Vincent Price，而此(ci)片(pian)(pian)(pian)(pian)也正是(shi)蒂姆·伯頓(dun)向(xiang)他致敬的(de)(de)作品，Vincent后(hou)來在《剪刀手愛德華(hua)》中(zhong)飾演(yan)科學家一角(jiao)）。
影片已經具備了初步的(de)蒂(di)姆(mu)－伯頓式的(de)哥特(te)(te)風格，陰郁、神秘(mi)、黑暗的(de)氛圍在每一個鏡頭中洋(yang)溢著(zhu)，甚至是人物的(de)造型也是蒂(di)姆(mu)－伯頓的(de)經典(dian)模式。盡(jin)管只是一部(bu)動畫片主角文(wen)森(sen)特(te)(te)的(de)造型和剪(jian)刀手愛德(de)華(hua)卻(que)驚人的(de)相(xiang)似。《文(wen)森(sen)特(te)(te)》拍攝完成(cheng)之后(hou)迪斯尼(ni)公司(si)的(de)高(gao)層認為(wei)這部(bu)作品(pin)恐怖、陰暗，不適宜(yi)兒童觀看因而將之封殺(sha)。
