Summary: A Must for Tim Burton Fans
Review: The special edition of "Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas" (1993) is a terrific buy for the yuletide season. Written and co-produced by Burton, this stop-motion animated film remains ghoulish fun -- well-directed by Henry Selick and featuring a memorable Danny Elfman score. The video also includes Burton's imaginative work for Disney in the early 1980s: his delightful animated short "Vincent" (narrated by none other than Vincent Price) and the ingenious, live-action "Frankenweenie" -- an affectionate 30-minute homage to the Boris Karloff-James Whale classic. Throw in the original theatrical trailer, plus some behind-the-screen goodies, and you have a definite keeper.

Summary: awesome
Review: Not only is this film fantastic, this DVD was just as good. The menu designs were really good and I loved all of the special features and Tim Burton's earlier movies. It was really good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful film
Review: When my boy was about 3, I bought this video and he kept watching it over and over. The weird part was I always stopped and watched it with him again every time. Later on, I played the a little bit of a melody from the film on the piano, my boy would turn around and tell me "Nightmare before Christmas"...

We certainly plan to own the DVD.

Summary: Personal Favorite!!
Review: THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS is one of my favorite films of all time, and introduced me to the fabulous and bizarre world of Tim Burton. What blew me away was the incredible animation, the attention to tiny details, Danny Elfman's remarkable music and songs, and the imaginative story that only could be thought up by someone as creative as Burton. THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS belongs on every movie fan's shelf, and the Special Edition includes behind-the-making footage that makes you appreciate the craftmanship of the animators even more. Truly brillaint! Buy it now!!

Summary: Must-have for any serious collector.
Review: "The Nightmare Before Christmas" is, of course, a fine film (though in my opinion, some of the Elfman songs get a bit overly operatic) but this presentation is just amazing. It's essentially everything that was included in the Laserdisc Deluxe Boxed set from a few years back, plus a "James and the Giant Peach" trailer.

The biggest bonus on the disc is the addition of Burton's two short films, "Vincent" and "Frankenweenie." "Vincent" is even closer than "Nightmare" at being the ideal film materialization of an Edward Gorey poem, and it's rarely been seen anywhere else. Not to mention the storyboards, commentary track, behind-the-scenes footage, trailers, deleted scenes (which are few in number, as animation is kept to a necesary minimum)... And this from Disney, a company usually known for gouging DVD buyers with barebones "features." Keep it up, Dis.

Summary: Best movie ever!
Review: This is the best movie ofd be all time, what more could be said!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Amazing DVD!
Review: ... Tim Burton is now a favorite of mine. There is also a great making of and the deleted footages are so fun. Many more extra's also such as an art gallery with over 400 stills, and of course the commentary which I never bother to listen to on any DVD. Now the movie itself is brillaint. The animation is superb and the plot is just amazing. My only complaint being that at many points the film is lacking and just moves so slow, hence the missing star. Dont get me wrong, it is an enjoyable film and definitely one I watch over and over, but many scenes have some drab and boring music, that Im not sure of kids will enjoy. But the film is amazing and that is just one flaw. Its a must. This DVD is a MUST...

Rating: 5 stars
