Overview

Tired of scaring humans every October 31 with the same old bag of tricks, Jack Skellington, the spindly king of Halloween Town, kidnaps Santa Claus and plans to deliver shrunken heads and other ghoulish gifts to children on Christmas morning.

Viewing Notes

This movie is so goddamn good I ordered the Blu while I was watching it. No 4K UHD available but the Blu still looks very nice. Had a Amazon gift card so I got the $9 Blu for free, basically.

The tactile look plus the style really are amazing. Love that this plays in both October and December. Last time I watched this I noted that I should’ve just gotten the Blu. I may watch it again once I get mine own.
