i come to expect a lot from you, but, the time factor has to be considered, and the roof and atmosphere were very well done, i would have loved, if you ve had had the time to add more pics of something extra with the house, you have lots of great pics, but, of the same subject. overall, for a couple of hours, you did great!

Absolutely love the music for this movie, and you pulled off the tower perfectly! Hey, you never sent me that link you mentioned at Octobrickfest, any way you could do that soon? Thanks, and great work.

Agreed, I would have liked to see a little more action, but I can't complain, considering how awesome it looks anyway. Happy belated Halloween!

Slack as I am, i'm just catching up on my fave's builds, including this one. I love the build here. The (small) disappointment for me is the lack of action, but I am greedy! Atmospheric and nicely presented, but I too will now spend the rest of the day with Danny Elfman's music ringing around my head, so cheers Chris!

Well I see the judges were overly generous here hahaha Thanks guys! You all have really been busting (bleep) on this contest. And you're right Parrington, I don't. ~ Chris.

Leda certainly kicked your honey bun on this one - still, nice job. Lee.

I think your idea and presentation are excellent. However, after viewing the film yesterday, I think it would have been possible to use more of the complex techniques you utilized on the roof to give the bottom portion of the house a more accurate look. 14 points.

GREAT! NOW I'VE GOT THAT FREAKING SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD! As much as I love that movie and that curved wall you've got there, it seems a bit too simple looking. 13 points.

14 points, a great build as always, just shy on pics presentation, I agree black and white would have nailed it, and would have loved to see some figs milling about, but never the less, it's just shy of perfect! Welcome back from vacation by the way, I haven't gone anywhere, and you are still outbuilding the crud out of me, you really mustn't sleep!

Excellent build on the house as well as the dio setting. IMO, the presentation would have been more 'pronounced' if the pictures were black and white rather than blue. Score = 13.

One of my all time favorite movies! Problem is, that I never know when is the right time to watch it....Do I watch it during Halloween, or during Christmas? The kids however, make me watch it whenever they feel like. As for your build, it's excellent! Great lighting used in the pics also. It's just missing a bit of "oomph" that a couple other builds have brought to the table. Score of 14.

Very sllek and cool build. Best of luck with the judges!

Neat! God loves you, and Jesus died for you.

Hey Chris, Alright so I left MOCpages Help group due to the unceasing chatter that clogs up your activity bar, and my LEGO glossary was somehow taken off of the creation list. I do apologize for the trouble but just notifying you of the loss. Hey thanks Chris, Blake

Everybody Scream! ~Ryan

Ya know, for someone with a lot of excuses this is a pretty darn nice MOC! For starters, great choice. (God, I love that movie!) Additionally, you've got some solid techniques in there. I like the way you tackled the roof, and the tower looks terrific. Happy Anniversary right back at ya, my friend, and nice work!

sweeeeet that is cool 100% real

hahaha...i was waiting for someone to build something based on this movie. great entry. the intro to this movie is actually one of my faveoite songs...

Strange, strange, Strange, STRANGE!

That is some awesome shaping you got there, and a great mood as well.

Very nice, Chris! I love the lighting and, of course, the build! I almost picked this movie for my build, but went with a different Burton film. You'll have to wait and see. Great stuff, man!

Ah. Well, when I think 'Monster Movie,' I think 'Horror,' like 'Alien' or 'Friday the 13th' or 'The Exorcist.' I guess I need to broaden my horizon on that.

The category said "Monster Movie." It didn't say you had to show the actual monster(s). And this movie is chock full of em! Thanks for all the great comments guys!

Well, not a Halloween person, but this build is really well done. Nice job with the house and the stairs.

Brilliant entry Chris? I am going to be hard pressed to best that and Mr. Xenomurphy's and Leda Kat's and well... just about all of them. Best of luck!

Cool house, Chief! But, uh, like, where's the monster and stuff?

Very nice! 5/5

Not sure if that counts as a monster movie...

Looks pretty good. >Eric

Nice work, Chris! I see the AFOL of the year brick :P

Great movie choice. Awsesome Build

Capturing the look and feel perfectly, very slopy. Good luck. :)

Except for the fact that it isn't Halloween yet, great build! I really like the roof.

Excellent subject choice and beautiful execution. The lighting also captures mood perfectly. Sure, everybody loves Leda, but this is just as great, in a very different way. Happy Halloween, kimosabe.~H

In a few hours you managed a curved wall, some funky textures, a balancing act, and the rest? Now I feel like a slug. And you are now an apostle in the house of Alex, or am I misreading what the fountain of photography wisdom is.

Great Tim Burton-ish dio!

Great build -- love the curve of the fence and the upper tower especially.

Great movie and a great build...two of my favorite things. The other favorites can't be listed due to various laws, rules, and restrictions.

Trippy! I'm Freakin out! Great Job!

Fantastic build!

I remember seeing that film! Nice remake of the house!

Yes! Nightmare before Christmas. I love this movie and try to watch it around Halloween each and every year. Not only you captured Burton´s style in perfect detail, after seeing this I can only repeat what I told Blake earlier: Thanks to you I start to like micro-style more and more.

I slowly scanned each of the pics from top to bottom, in search of the AFOL brick. When I reached the end, I also reached your badly placed personal message. :P Great build (love that song and the movie), I especially loved the curved gate and the roof. Happy Halloween!

I love A Nightmare before Christmas! Tim Burton is a genius. Excellent entry, and I honestly only noticed it was micro scale when you pointed it out. Now that's pure genius right there! The claymation style suits lego very well and I think you have done a superb job at this.

Great job! As soon as I saw the title I made the connection to A Nightmare Before Christmas. The house is truly great.
