One of my favorite movies ever; a classic of imagination

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 2013)

This classic holiday film shows the endless possibilities of imagination and wonder. Jack Skellington is the Pumpkin King in the land of Halloween and wanders out into the woods because he is bored of celebrating Halloween every day. He finds doors in the woods that lead to holidays like Easter Christmas. Jack is most interested in Christmas and is wonder-struck with this wondrous snow-filled place with presents and lights; this leads him to steal Santa Claus and his plot to bring Christmas with Halloween ultimately fails. This is a movie that needs to be remembered for its unique concept and beautiful stop-motion animation. I watch this film every year during Halloween and Christmas and never get tired. The songs are so creative and just wanna make you jump along and sing with them. You feel like you are in the movie too - both in Halloween Town and Christmas Town. The details in this film are very present and the attraction between Jack and Sally, a rag doll, just adds depth and character to the overall feel of the movie. I will never get tired of this movie! I love it so much!
