Jack Skellington is the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, a place where residents are employed to scare humans witless every Halloween. Jack, despite being idolised for his scaring prowess, is bored of his lot in life. One day he takes a stroll into the woods and discovers several doorways, each leading to a different human holiday. He enters into the world of Christmas, and is so overwhelmed by the fun and goodwill that he decides to embark on a plan to kidnap santa and do Christmas himself, Halloween Town style!

    Stop-motion at its very best, this movie is absolutely jam-packed with fabulous songs and excellent animation. With a great script and a surprising story nothing faulty ruins this amazing movie!

    I didn't like this film because I have seen this before and I found it quite boring and I would recommend it but this film should be watched only once because it becomes less interesting when you watch it more.
