The re-release of a Halloween classic claims a spot in the box office Top 5 this weekend, outgrossing new horror movies such as Saw X and The Nun 2.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Nightmare Before Christmas has grossed higher than several new horror movies at the box office. The 1993 movie, which was directed by Henry Selick and produced by Tim Burton, is a stop-motion animated musical set in Halloween Town.
Deadline has reported the domestic box office for the weekend. While the top 4 is predictably filled out by the new releases Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, Killers of the Flower Moon, The Exorcist: Believer, and Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie, the No. 5 spot has been officially claimed by The Nightmare Before Christmas. The theatrical return of Nightmare Before Christmas' Jack and Sally earned $4.
The Nightmare Before Christmas Has a Huge Legacy Despite No Sequel This box office gross for this re-release, which also ties into Disney's centennial celebration, proves what a long-lasting legacy the movie has. The property has stood the test of time even without a Nightmare Before Christmas sequel ever materializing. This has been the case for a variety of reasons.
One of the major reasons is the fact that Nightmare Before Christmas has formed a major part of the Disney brand despite never having a proper movie sequel. The movie has been immortalized in a wide variety of toys, comic books, video games, and even a live concert celebrating Danny Elfman's original music.
Nightmare Before Christmas characters like Jack and Sally have also become icons of Halloween, appearing on all kinds of merchandise and costumes. Additionally, the spirit of the movie lives on in the follow-up movies of Henry Selick, who has continued his trademark blend of family-friendly and eerie in stop-motion movies such as Coraline and Wendell & Wild.
