Program Description

Description

Come celebrate this Friday the 13th with a spooky holiday film. The film follows the misadventures of Jack Skellington, Halloweentown's beloved pumpkin king, who has become bored with the same routine of frightening people in the "real world". When Jack accidentally stumbles on Christmastown, all bright colors and warm spirits, he gets a new lease on life -- he plots to bring Christmas under his control by kidnapping Santa Claus and taking over the role. But Jack soon discovers even the best-laid plans of mice and skeleton men can go seriously awry.

This film is rated PG and is for high-school students and up. No registration required.
