The Return of Jack Skellington!

If you’re a big fan of Tim Burton‘s "The Nightmare Before Christmas" (and c’mon, who isn’t?), then you might wanna hang out near your local "mega-big-screen" movie house on October 20th — because that’s when Jack and his crew will invade theaters for a second time.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, "Sally will drop nightshade into Dr. Finkelstein’s tea in 3-D come Halloween, when Walt Disney Pictures releases a digitally remastered version of "Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas." The digital release of the 1993 stop-motion animated classic is set for Oct. 20. "Nightmare" marks the second digital 3-D theatrical release from Disney after "Chicken Little" did banner business last year in digital 3-D on 84 U.S. screens at 81 locations. The digital 3-D boxoffice returns outperformed the standard screenings nearly 3-to-1, according to Disney estimates."

I know they’ll sell at least one ticket here in Philadelphia: mine!
