Perfect timing for this one as who doesn't love to be scared on Christmas? To Finish Fa la-la-la films we look at the film that everyone knows written by Tim Burton but not actually directed by him. A film that follows Jack Skellington, the pumpkin king, who is bored with Halloween and begins trying to bring Christmas to his world. A film that may or may not be worn with "nostalgia glasses" as it does have a few inconsistencies. However, it does blend two holidays so well together and creates an interesting concept with a recognizable style and songs that only add to the story rather than feel like a time slot. Something's up with Jack and it's the holiday spirit, at its finest.
