Enter an extraordinary world filled with magic and wonder -- where every holiday has its own special land ... and imaginative, one-of-a-kind characters! THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS tells the heartfelt tale of Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, and all things that go bump in the night. Bored with the same old tricks and treats, he yearns for something more, and soon stumbles upon the glorious magic of Christmas Town! Jack decides to bring this joyful holiday back to Halloween Town. But as his dream to fill Santa's shoes unravels, it's up to Sally, the rag doll who loves him, to stitch things back together. This critically acclaimed movie milestone captured the heart and imagination of audiences everywhere with its Academy Award(R)-nominated stop-motion effects, engaging Grammy(R)-nominated music, and the genius of Tim Burton (BATMAN, PLANET OF THE APES). THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHIRSTMAS -- a delightful treat the whole family will enjoy!
User Submitted The Nightmare Before Christmas (Special Edition) Reviews October 9, 2008 "Nightmare" a dream This is a fabulous movie, so it is gratifying to see an edition that provides a full menu of features to compliment the film. Filled with behind-the-scenes features and extras, plus a digital disc and a fabulous edition of the movie itself.
October 9, 2008 The Nightmare Before Christmas This movie is excellent, and love Tim Burton's film. Great movie for kids and adults, very educational. Animation is awesome and very realistic. Would recommend for the entire family.
October 9, 2008 AMAZING! This movie is THE 90s classic movie by Tim Burton! Jack and Sally are sweet and this movie is beautifully made! You would be a moron if you dont watch this and share it with the family!
October 6, 2008 the nightmare before christmas this movie was cute, a little too scary for my kids ( under the age of 5) The item shipped to me quick and everything was great.
October 5, 2008 'Tis truly A nightmare Before christmas Another one of my friends got this for me as a gift. Again, I was giddy with delight (they all know me so well)! While I thought it odd that Disney would reproduce something that was fairly dark, it was so great to see this movie again, as I hadn't seen it in years. The remaster was wonderful as the colors were more vibrant. I especially loved all the bonus features like Frankenweenie, Vincent and The storyboard to film comparison. I thought the cost was high at first, but when I saw the 3D bust as the cover and all the extras, I realize the cost was quite fair. This is a great buy for followers of this cult classic or anything Tim Burton.
October 3, 2008 in time for the holidays! amazing family classic. The video and audio are top notch and although it might lack some extras the digital copy is a nice touch. Highly recommended
October 3, 2008 A MUST HAVE!!! This is my first Blu-Ray purchase and I couldn't be more pleased. This is one of my favorite films, even though I only had it on Laser Disc before this. Will watch this many more times!
October 3, 2008 Excellent This Blu-Ray Disc version of The Nightmare Before Christmas is a must buy for any fan of the film. It has the most amazing picture and sound, along with plenty of extras to go with it. And at about the same price as the DVD, why not go with the Blu-Ray? I highly recommend this product.
October 3, 2008 Blu-ray brings out detail Our family has had a copy of this movie on some format or other for a long time, so it was a natural addition to our Blu-ray collection. The high definition is great for this film because it lets you see the detail of the models so much better.
It's also our first experience with the digital copy feature, which I like because the kids can run the movie on the PC without having to fire up the home theatre or handle the disk.
My interest in Danny Elfman's music predates his film scoring career, so I found it fascinating how he worked with Tim Burton to get the songs written before a script actually existed. It's my favorite portion of the bonus features.
October 3, 2008 wonderful of course this movie was purchased for my boyfriend and he loves it! I am so glad i got it. The picture and everything is wonderful
