Watch: Director Tim Burton Geeks Out Inside the Video Club in Paris
by Alex Billington August 11, 2025Source: YouTube
“All monsters have an emotional core to them… They are the most human characters in the movie!” He’s right! The latest iconic filmmaker to visit the iconic Video Club in Paris is Tim Burton, the macabre master & cinematic genius who has been bringing us incredible stories for nearly 5 decades. Burton stopped by the video store in Paris to record a video for Konbini in promotion of the release of Wednesday – Season 2 on Netflix, which is now streaming as of this week. (He also made an animated short film which you can watch here.) This is one of my favorite Video Club videos yet – Burton seems like such a jolly, geeky film nerd who is having the time of his life talking about movies in this place. He brings up a few of his all-time favorites: Ishirō Honda’s The War of the Gargantuas, Mario Bava’s Black Sunday, and double feature I Was a Teenage Werewolf and I Was a Teenage Frankenstein. He also talks (~8:00) being on the Cannes jury in 2010 and choosing Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives for the Palme d’Or. I’m delighted by how upbeat & jovial Burton is, and how he seems to really let his geeky side out in this video shop. Enjoy.

Thanks to Twitter for the tip on this. The video is made by Konbini, a mega popular YouTube channel from France. It’s part of their “Video Club” series (this one with a very stoned Brad Pitt is fun). Their intro (direct translation) states: “When you hear Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, or, more recently, Wednesday, you think of fantasy film legend Tim Burton! The director took the entire Video Club into his world, where he talks about his empathy for monsters, his meeting with Jenna Ortega, and inspirations behind his greatest classics.” This latest Konbini Vidéo Club visit is promoting Burton’s Wednesday series (Season 2) – back on Netflix already (watch the trailer). The video store they visit in this video is JM Video in Paris (check Google Maps) – visit their official site. You can also see Video Club promos with Christopher Nolan & Cillian Murphy, Wes Anderson, M. Night Shyamalan, Terry Gilliam, Luca Guadagnino, and James Gunn. For more info, visit YouTube. We’re always watching out for more of these. What do you think about Burton’s stories?
