We're in the thick of holiday season now so this week we're talking about The Nightmare Before Christmas. Join our look back at this Halloween/Christmas story about a skeleton king who isn't satisfied with his life and so tries to take over a new holiday. We talk about Hot Topic romances, what happens when a movie doesn't know its own metaphor, and how Jack Skeleington is really just actual Tim Burton.
