The answer to yesterday's NAME THAT MOVIE is The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Jude Seymour, Martha Ellen and Sarah Rivette answered correctly.

The Nightmare Before Christmas. Rated: PG.

One-minute review: If you haven't already seen it, you certainly know about it. It is still the best stop-motion film of all-time. It revolutionized that form of animation and has a great story about the king of Halloween, Jack, accidentally falling into Christmas Town. He discovers its joys, but when he tries to bring it back to Halloween, the results are catastrophic. He eventually has to to fill the role of Santa Clause. Add to Netflix queue, Add to Blockbuster queue.
