The Nightmare Before Christmas: in 3D
Sometimes I still surprise myself: maybe because while other people tend to get new information from TV and newspapers I don't watch TV and rarely read newspapers (specially on papers), but sometimes I assume that something new is commonly known when in fact it isn't. One of those things, as I found today, is that no one seems to know that a new version of The Nightmare Before Christmas is out there, TODAY.
Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas is a 1993 stop motion animated musical film about the inhabitants of Halloween Town who take over Christmas one year, directed by stop-motion animator Henry Selick. The film is loosely based on drawings and a poem by Tim Burton, and he served as co-producer. He did not direct the film as is sometimes believed, but he was heavily involved.
The film was released by Touchstone Pictures, a film studio owned by the Walt Disney Company, after the main Walt Disney Pictures division balked at some of the darker content.
The remastered 3-D version of the film was re-released by Walt Disney Pictures on October 20, 2006 (today). Note that it is 3-D via 3-D glasses and not CGI.
This new version also comes with a re-edition of the soundtrack... But with a big bonus! For something like £14,99 you can buy the 2-Discs edition of the OST, the first CD being the usual soundtrack, and the second with the songs covered by several bands:
1. This Is Halloween - Marilyn Manson
2. Sally's Song - Fiona Apple
3. What's This? - Fall Out Boy
4. Kidnap the Sandy Claws - She Wants Revenge
5. This Is Halloween - Panic! At the Disco
6. Making Christmas (Demo) - Danny Elfman
7. Oogie Boogie's Song (Demo) - Danny Elfman
8. This Is Halloween (Demo) - Danny Elfman
9. Kidnap the Sandy Claws (Demo) - Danny Elfman
This edition is going to be available starting at the 24th of October, but you can pre-order it now... What are you waiting for?
