Directed by Henry Selick (Coraline) and produced by Tim Burton, The Nightmare Before Christmas is a stunningly original work of stop-motion animation.
Halloweentown's beloved pumpkin king Jack Skellington (Chris Sarandon) is bored with the annual routine of frightening people in the ‘real world’. When he accidentally stumbles on Christmastown, all bright colours and warm spirits, he’s delighted, and gets a new lease on life, plotting to bring Christmas under his control by kidnapping Santa Claus and taking over his role. But as Jack soon discovers, even the best-laid plans of mice and skeleton men can go seriously awry. With magical visuals and Tim Burton’s signature twisty gothic charm, it’s a gently macabre, must-see seasonal classic.
