Halloween or Christmas movie?

[Hadenoughofitall441]

Ever since I was around 6 I’ve watched the nightmare before Christmas on Christmas Eve because it was on the tv. It’s been a tradition ever since then that I have sinned passed onto my kids. So imagine my rage (lighthearted) when someone tried telling me it’s a Halloween movie. I’ve never been so disheartened 😂 so tell me, what have you grown up knowing the nightmare before Christmas as?

It's a Christmas movie it was released at Christmas years ago.

Only watched at Christmas in this house! It's the accompaniment to present wrapping evening, with Baileys

Christmas movie!

Christmas

I'm not sure. I don't like the film at all and doesn't make me feel Christmassy but it's not right for Halloween either.

It’s set after Halloween and in the run up to Christmas- it’s a Christmas movie.

Halloween definitely

I'd say Christmas. I noticed our cinema is showing it for half term, seemed wrong.

It starts on the day after Halloween. So cannot be a Halloween film. And it's all about Jack trying to do Christmas, so clearly a Christmas film!

Both, I saw it at a special Halloween screening a few years ago!

Christmas, I watch it every year

I watched it on Xmas eve as a kid. Freaked me out. Didn't feel xmassy at all. It's a Halloween film based on the fact that it's full of mostly Halloween characters (they're the ones who have the main parts).
My OH disagrees

As a Disney obsessive and long-time Goff I agree that it is a Christmas film. However, it can be enjoyed at Halloween too. And probably any other day of the year .
