| It was 1993, and in October of that year--just in time for Halloween--a pop culture phenomenon would hit cinemas with the brilliant, macabre, hilarious, fun, ghostly and wonderfully wacky THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. Tim Burtons tale of Halloween Towns reigning monarch, Jack Skellington, trading places with the key inhabitant of Christmas Town would be like Goosebumps meets Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, with a dash of Its A Wonderful Life and Beetlejuice thrown in for good measure. The movie ranks as one of the oddest, albeit one of the darkest and loveliest childrens films of all time.
