...Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas Every Burton film is Halloween scary and candy-cane sweet. So it's appropriate that the fevered imagineer (Beetlejuice, the Batman films, Edward Scissorhands) dreamed up this stop-motion fable about a Halloween ghoul who wants to play Santa Claus. Directed by Henry Selick, Nightmare is Disney's weirdest cartoon ever: chilly, rollicking, endlessly inventive. And it's animated by Danny Elfman's magical-spookical score. Is this the first Hollywood musical to set every one of its 10 songs in a minor...

...second a day. That's about as much of this stop-motion animation epic as any one of the film's 30 animators at Aardman Studios in Bristol, England, could produce. Stop motion, as used in Tim Burton's Corpse Bride and Park's 2000 hit Chicken Run, is essentially a series of still photographs (running through the movie projector at 24 frames a second), and each tableau, which may contain dozens of Plasticine characters, must be posed and shot before the next one is begun.
