My 3 favorite Nightmare Before Christmas Commercials
3rd PLACE: VHS “Coming Soon”
This promo achieved its marketing goal and made me think of Nightmare Before Christmas as a historically newsworthy event that I had to witness before I was even drawn to the creative aspects about the film.
2nd PLACE:
This is my second favorite opening to the Nightmare world and story.
1st PLACE:
[original taken down on Youtube. Looking for replacement. TV spot that starts with “imagine a world where night lasts forever”]
This is a masterpiece of a commercial for a masterpiece of a film. My definite favorite Nightmare Before Christmas commercial and still the one that gives me those familiar tinglie feelings all over again. The unusual music (that never appears in the film) pumps you up, they do the exposed brain gag while saying it will “blow your mind”, you hear Jacks “I am the Pumpkin King” declaration, a world where night lasts forever? TAKE ME THERE NOW!
