When I was 5 or 6 my mother bought The Nightmare Before Christmas. It horrified me. Although some think it is a great movie, I think it is just creepy and weird. Maybe that's why some people like it.

Ooooh yes! I love the creepyness and surrealism of it. A very good film.

yes the distortion of his work is definately what makes it what it is!

thats an amazing film!!

i've seen it once when i was small and i wish i could get it on dvd and see it again.

Ok, I watched it again and it was a lot better than I remember. (I also now enjoy a lot of food I hated when I was younger.) However, some parts of the movie are just creepy for the sake of creepiness and don't contribute to the story.

When you think about the amount of work involved, it seems unlikely that the people concerned would have done one second more than they needed to. If you see the "making of..." 'Extra' on the DVD, you will see that several scenes got axed because of time constraints, or because they did not move the story along. I've seen the movie a number of times, and I can't remember one scene that was creepy just for the sake of it -- the whole thing was creepy. That was the point...

Do you work for Aardman or is that just a picture you found?

Nah...it's just a picture of a grumpy old geezer!!
