HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS FROM DVDTALK

The Movie:

"Nightmare Before Christmas" is the remarkable production from the mind of Tim Burton and the skills of director Henry Selick. Working together to wrap the package up perfectly is the wonderful score from composer Danny Elfman. The film is so many things; it's a smart kids film, it's got wonderful animation and so much imagination in every detail of its presentation of this amazing world that's been created. The stop-motion animation is absolutely stunning - you look at every frame and ponder how long it took to prepare even that second of the picture.

The main character in the film is Jack Skellington, a character who is the head of a little town that is in charge of Halloween. One day, he stumbles into Christmastown and is amazed by what he sees. So, he decides to kidnap Santa Claus and prepare Christmas on his own, and his attempt is, to say the least, an awkward one.

The film is haunting and strange and yet, there's a beauty to the marvelously gloomy sets. The voice work gets the tone of the characters right, as well. All-in-all, "Nightmare" may give some of the youngest kids nightmares, but older children and adults will likely appreciate the level of talent that went into bringing this wild world to life.

The DVD

VIDEO: Although the non-anamorphic transfer that is included here is pretty good overall, it's dissapointing that Disney did not decide to go anamorphic with this Special Edition release. Sharpness is very good and detail is solid as well, even in the darker areas of the film.

There is no pixelation, but slight shimmering does appear briefly once or twice. The print used is especially clear and crisp, with only a few very tiny marks. Black level is strong and clarity is never lacking.

Colors are also perfect, looking nicely saturated and rich, without any problems apparent. This is a very, very nice looking presentation, but an anamorphic transfer would have been extremely appreciated.
