⏪️ 11AM SATURDAY, OCT. 17: THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. SCREENTIME IS PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH KMOS

When Jack Skellington, King of Halloween Town, stumbles upon neighboring Christmas Town, he becomes obsessed with celebrating the winter holiday himself. When he adopts the Christmas spirit, instead of bringing jolly and joy, he ends up bringing confusion and chaos to the streets of Halloween Town ... and the real world.

Originally conceived as a poem in 1982 by Tim Burton, The Nightmare Before Christmas was adapted into a film 10 years later through a collaboration with Burton and Director Henry Selick. This stop-motion animated musical fantasy film was a commercial success upon its release and 30 years later has remained a classic across two holiday seasons.

Join Ragtag Cinema for a jack-o’-lantern coloring sheet activity when doors open before the film at 10:30am.

$5 tickets for kids 12 and under!

Recommended age: 7+
