Buy Now	Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas (more) »rank: 641 by: Danny Elfman, Marilyn Manson, Panic!@ the Disco, Fiona Apple, Fall Out Boy, Paul Reubens, Catherine O' Hara, Citizens of Halloween, Patrick Stewert : :Not only is The Nightmare Before Christmas one of the best musicals of the past two decades; it may well be Danny Elfman's masterpiece, successfully integrating his main influences (from Cab Calloway to Nino Rota) into a fantastic whole.
