The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

Is it a Halloween movie with a Christmas twist, or a Christmas movie with a Halloweenic slant? Or is it both? For me, I look at it like discovering that your trick-or-treat bag has been filled with presents instead of candy. And no rocks. Well, maybe one coal. IMO, the best thing by far to have Tim Burton's name on it. Such a great cast of creative & endearingly maniacal characters. Innocent enough for kids who can still see the world thru bushy-tailed bright-eyed glasses, yet twistedly dark enough to keep the interests of those of us adults who've had that part of our spirits crushed a long time ago. An inter-holiday movie for all ages on either side of the perspective spectrum. ...Read more

Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my top movies ever. Just the the whole plotline is so filpin' sweet! Think about it, mixing the two most opposite holidays ever to create a twisted version of one holiday. Also the wonderful vision of Tim Burton and Henry Selick really pulled all of Tim's ideas into the sweetest movie ever! Disneyland was so inspired by the movie they even created a ride for it. The Haunted Mansion Holiday is basically the same idea as the movie.You should really check it out,even if you can't go search some pictures of the ride on google or watever... Yet the movie is a little short but think about it, the process of make a clay animated is very time consuming so yeah.... I hope you enjoy the movie

A really sweet story about a skeleton who would rather celebrate Christmas than Halloween. This film is a real achievment being the first full length piece of stop motion and Henry Selick and his team deliver with a jaw droppingly beautiful fairy tale. The songs are slightly hit and miss but none fall short of good, infact only 'Making Christmas' 'Jack's Obsession' and 'Poor Jack' fall short of great. I was skeptical about Danny Elfman writing songs rather than just the typical score but alot of the numbers I would consider musical greats. The cast is really well picked and alot of the colourful characters are great concepts that you will never forget. Essentially a modern Christmas special in the vein of what the Rankin Bass stuff was, just a bit more creepy...
