What does it mean? What does it mean?

Rating: 8/10 (2 November 2014)

How appropriate that I start holiday viewing with a film that bridges Halloween and Christmas.
Now, I am not a fan of animated films, but this isn't the usually animation you find in Disney films.
It is call stop-motion animation, and it looks very realistic.
Now, Jack Skellington from Halloweentown (voiced by Chris Sarandon and Danny Elfman (the singing), is really getting bored with Halloween - the same thing every year, and he goes walking in the forest and enters the door for Christmastown.
He gets excited about Christmas, and tries to institute it in Halloweentown. Unfortunately, he doesn't understand the concept and it turns out badly. They even kidnap Santa Claus (voiced by Edward Ivory).
And, can you believe they even wove a love story in here.
The film is full of interesting characters, of course, and some really good music. It is a visual feast.
