Product Description:
Now digitally restored and remastered with state-of-the-art technology, THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS is deeper, darker and more brilliant than ever just as Tim Burton originally envisioned it on Blu-ray Disc Bored with the same old scare-and-scream routine, Pumpkin King Jack Skellington longs to spread the joy of Christmas. But his merry mission puts Santa in jeopardy and creates a nightmare for good little boys and girls everywhere! Hear the genius of Danny Elfman's sensational music in 7.1 Surround Sound as the fantastic talents and imaginations of Tim Burton and Henry Selick come to life in stunning Hi-Def. THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS now even more eerie and extraordinary on Blu-ray High Definition!
Bonus Features
THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS is the first full-length stop-motion animated film ever created.
The movie contains more than 227 animated characters.
Santa Claus' head has more than 50 different working parts, and Jack has more than 400 separate interchangeable heads, each handcrafted with a different facial expression.
The smallest working puppet in the movie is a doll from the "real world" Jack visits that is only one inch long.
Sally is wearing a real miniature dress laid on top of foam latex so that the fabric doesn't move too much on screen.
At the height of production, the animators produced only 70 seconds of finished film per week.
To create Halloweentown's twisted look, the design artists often made their sketches using their nondrawing hand.

For those who never thought Disney would release a film in which Santa Claus is kidnapped and tortured, well, here it is! The full title is Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas, which should give you an idea of the tone of this stop-action animated musical/fantasy/horror/comedy. It is based on characters created by Burton, the former Disney animator best known as the director of Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and the first two Batman movies. His benignly scary-funny sensibility dominates the story of Halloweentown resident Jack Skellington (voice by Danny Elfman, who also wrote the songs), who stumbles on a bizarre and fascinating alternative universe called ... Christmastown! Directed by Henry Selick (who later made the delightful James and the Giant Peach), this PG-rated picture has a reassuringly light touch. As Roger Ebert noted in his review, "some of the Halloween creatures might be a tad scary for smaller children, but this is the kind of movie older kids will eat up; it has the kind of offbeat, subversive energy that tells them wonderful things are likely to happen." --Jim Emerson

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is Creepy Christmas at its Creepiest
It had been a while since I had seen this movie, but you could tell that the quality was much better! I had forgotten how funny and weird and wacky "Nightmare" is; then I remembered that it was a Tim Burton movie.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Movie Ever!
Best movie ever! I loved this movie when I was younger and now my daughter loves to watch it too



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What high-def is all about
Superb. Unbelievable. Watch this Blu-ray version to see things you never even knew were in the move. Every little shadow and shimmer of light. Truly glorious.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect
The clarity of the Blu Ray disc is unbelievable. Watching this on my Hitachi 57" HD TV along with my Sony Play Station 3, it was almost like I could reach out and touch the scenery. I am totally impressed with the sight and sound of this Blu Ray DVD. This disc should be the standard for the others.
Thanks

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Stunning quality
A problem with the review section is that is does not differentiate among the many releases and formats of this movie. I have a VHS copy that I must have had for over a decade. Many of the reviews are for various DVD transfers. But the one I am reviewing is the Blu-ray version.

The quality and clarity of this presentation is stunning. I could not have imagined I'd be seeing the level of detail that is presented here. If I had to name a fault, it was so clear that it made me aware ... Read More
