Creative claymation from director Tim Burton which is among his best works to date. Jack Skellington, Pumpkin King of Holloweentown, goes wandering into the woods and stumbles upon Christmastown, a different kind of world where, unlike Holloweentown, people are actually kind and pleasant. Extremely creative characters makes this film a delight and the songs, while not being the best, are above average. A must for children, but adults will probably like it more.
