Halloween or Christmas movie? Well here on the Unlocking What Was Cool we truly believe that The Nightmare Before Christmas (produced but not directed by Tim Burton) is the quintessential November 1st movie. The perfect tie between halloween and christmas, this classic 76 minute stop motion animated musical dark fantasy film turns 30 this year and still holds up incredibly today. With an eccentric cast of characters, amazing songs written by Danny Elfman, and a purely imaginative storyline and setting, it's no wonder why this is one of Neil's all time favourites and we're very proud to see the popularity keep growing even without a sequel!
