The Nightmare Before Christmas

The Nightmare Before Christmas (76 min)
Seen on the 19th April, 2008

Another brilliant animation from Tim Burton. Jack is going through a disenchanted phase since every year Halloween is celebrated in the same mean, monstrous and deathly fashion as usual. His friends, death people, a two-faced mayor and a limp-less, lovely Sally, look for Jack since he was last time say with his dog Zero.

In a truly inspiring, sense-making search, he reaches the conclusion Jack wants to become the major player in what discovers, is a very happy time for human beings: Christmas time. He then decides to capture the malevolent Sandy Claws and put him in the hands of the horrible Oogi-Boogie for torture. His adventures teach him the value of friendships and that some things are best as they are.
