The Nightmare Before Christmas is a classic that has captured the hearts of viewers of all ages. For many, like Carla, it has been a part of their lives since childhood. With its release in 1993, this claymation masterpiece added a new dimension to the world of animation. The stop motion technique used in this film made it feel tactile and real, setting it apart from the traditional hand-drawn Disney movies. This unique presentation still holds up today, making it a timeless experience.

With Halloween kicking off the festive season, followed by Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' perfectly encapsulates the spirit of this joyful and celebratory time of the year. It serves as a bridge between Halloween and Christmas, making it an ideal movie choice throughout the months of September, October, November, and December. While it may have initially been associated more with Halloween, due to its aesthetic and its popular viewing during that time, it certainly invokes Christmas vibes as well. In fact, if you were to watch it before Christmas, it would still feel fitting. Other holiday horror stories, such as 'Gremlins', also exist, further solidifying the idea that 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' is a delightful blend of both Halloween and Christmas, and a perfect treat for the festive season.
