A dazzling array of sights and sounds. - 5 out of 5  (5/10/2001)
The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite pieces of animation. It is a charming story about Jack the Pumpkin King and resident of Halloween Town who is sick the day to day drudgery of creating Halloween. One day he wanders off and finds a doorway to Christmas Town. He enters the door and finds himself hip deep in snow and good cheer. He is amazed at this new holiday and decides that a great way to break out of his funk is to kidnap the guy most responsible for Christmas and take over   more >>

A Nightmare On Burton Street - 4 out of 5  (10/12/2000)
It's a good thing Tim Burton has the world of film through which to express his ideas and feelings...otherwise the man would require years of therapy. His movies have seen psychopathic clowns (Batman), bizarre ghosts (Beetlejuice), headless horsemen (Sleepy Hollow) and even aliens tipping national monuments on top of boy scout troops (Mars Attacks!). Let's face it: Burton sees the world through a different set of eyes than the rest of us. Yet another of Burton's b   more >>

The most amazing animated film in the last 20 years - 5 out of 5  (11/26/2000)
The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite pieces of animation.

He decides that a great way to break out of his funk is to kidnap the guy most responsible for Christmas and take over his holiday for him. It is a very original story and it has some great musical numbers written by Danny Elfman, however th   more >>

Very good presentation with lots of extras - 4.75 out of 5  (10/27/2000)

Oh, what a flick - 4.5 out of 5  (10/11/2000)
The look of this movie is just incredible! The DVD version has a crispness that is worth raving about. And the score by Danny Elfman is, as usual, moving and a perfect fit for the film. Nice to see some good extras on an animated feature, especially Vincent. A definite must have for any Tim Burton Fan.   more >>
