The Delightfully, Frightful Holiday Classic Makes Its Blu-ray 3D™ Debut
Tim Burton’s THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS
Available For The First Time To Own In Spectacular 3D Presentation, TODAY!
“Jack Skellington, after being exhausted of his role as the Pumpkin King, goes out one night, only to find the fantastically cheerful and loving village of Christmas Town. After seeing how different Christmas Town is, Jack feels as if his horrible and wretched Halloween Town need a bit of a change. Acquiring the help of the three most mischievous trick-or-treaters, he plans to kidnap “Sandy Claws” to take over the job of giving presents to all the children around the world on Christmas Eve, all by himself. However, his plan goes bad when the evil Oogie Boogie shows up, capturing Santa and ruining Christmas!” – AIDY
