The Nightmare Before Christmas

Introducing a brand new thread, we bring you Young Programmers, films chosen by NCC’s YP team, aimed at both younger viewers and the young at heart. Thanks to Cinema for All for supporting this initiative.

From the goth-infused mind of Tim Burton, our first YP outing is the dark stop-motion musical fantasy. Meet Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, in a haunting dilemma – he’s lost his passion for Halloween. Then discovering Christmas Town, filled with warmth and wonder, a newfound love and joy surges within him, as Jack decides to bring Christmas to his dark domain.
