Product description
Animated musical fantasy set in a parallel world where different lands represent different holiday periods. Our hero is Jack Skellington (voice of Chris Sarandon), a man from Halloween who becomes converted to Christmas and sets out to spread joy in the world. However, when Jack's new mission leads him to kidnap Santa (voice of Edward Ivory), it becomes clear that he is not really in tune with the Yuletide spirit. Produced and visualised by Tim Burton, this was the first full-length feature to use stop-motion animation throughout.

We watch this every December, as part of our own holiday traditions. This year we were not able to watch our physical copy, so we went digital.

Love it!

I was a child when this came out and it was something that was always played around the Christmas time. I purchased this purely for nostalgia and to show the kids the magical word of Tim Burton movies. They were impressed and the feelings I got when watching it now are the same as back then. If you haven't seen this before or aren't old enough to remember it, then check it out. The animation style is great and with Tim Burton's unique approach to character design it makes for a good movie for kids and adults at Halloween.

The Nightmare Before Christmas [Blu-ray + DVD]
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 May 2014Verified Purchase
I have always been a fan of many of Tim Burton's films and his artwork / visual style; that's what I admire so much in this film is not just the highly imaginative story and original artistry in sculpting / drawing the characters and locations, but the stop-motion film making process, which is credit to the director Henry Selick and his production team also.
Burton's eclectic mix of styles is recognisable immediately with influences of: german expressionism, hammer horror, universal horror, Dr. Seuss artwork and the story of the outsider trying to fit in and eventually accepting or being accepted for who he is as a person. Danny Elfman's score and musical numbers are of course genius and perfectly suited for the film, which stands alone as a great score in it's own right; the film would not be the same without it (comes in 7.1 surround sound on this blu-ray).
Overall I would highly recommend buying this film in Blu-ray, there are a good deal of interesting special features available such as: documentaries, deleted scenes and original early short films by Tim Burton such as 'Vincent' and 'Frankenweenie'. The transfer looks and sounds stunning and as expected the film has never looked or sounded so bright, crisp, detailed and colourful - it looks 3D even in 2D!

Great film!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 January 2016Verified Purchase
I love this tale ever since I first saw it in school. I bought this for my family's Christmas Eve Film Night with some other films. Since it is both a Halloween and Christmas film (Thank you Tim Burton for confusing a world as to what kind of film it is ;) ) I thought it would suit all members of the family which it does- My family love it. The tale is about a skeleton who is the king of Halloween seeking to find himself and the girl who has always been there right under his nose. Sally and Jack are perfect together with the music makes it a classic tale for Halloween and Christmas both for renewed hope and a fright to think what might happen if things changed! It came in good time and was in very good condition.
