Editorial Reviews
"...Delectably ghoulish....A major step forward for both stop-motion animation [and for Burton]..."
New York Times - p.13 - Janet Maslin (10/09/1993)

"...A rich, inventive score by Danny Elfman..."
Sight and Sound - p.53-4 - Kim Newman (12/01/1994)

"...Charming...A terrific package..." -- Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly - p.81 - Steve Simels (12/23/1994)

"...A feast for the eyes and the imagination..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (10/27/2000)

"...First, go for the story. Then go back just to look in the corners of the screen, and appreciate the little visual surprises and inspirations that are tucked into every nook and cranny..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (10/22/1993)

5 stars out of 5 -- "[With] vivid background characters, underplayed by deeply felt relationships, priceless gags and thoroughly hummable tunes which inspire varied and imaginative musical sequences."
Empire - Kim Newman (01/01/2008)

    Tim Burton draws attention to any of his work - people tend to love him or hate him... but with the Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton has created a visually stunning masterpiece. The Nightmare before Christmas is a stop-motion animated movie following Pumpkin King Jack Skellington (Love the name!!) who chases what he thinks will be the finer life in Santa Claus's land. But Jack Skellington struggles to leave his world - Halloween!

    The beauty of The Nightmare Before Christmas is that its beautifuly created and assembled. In fact, it was nominated for an Academy Award. This is the predecessor to Tim Burton's 2005 release the Corpse Bride. The Nightmare Before Christmas is a must have DVD as, with each watch, you will find new and special scenes and moments.
