I forget how many people rely on my hints until I miss a week and don’t post one. The emails and comments poured in last week, but everyone should remember that this is a bonus hint that I do out of the tremendous goodness of my heart. But I certainly appreciate everyone visitng my site, so I’ll continue to put up the hints — at least for most weeks.

This week’s movie was a 1993 stop motion fantasy film produced/co-written by Tim Burton. It tells the story of Jack Skellington, a being from “Halloween Town” who opens a portal to “Christmas Town.” Hope that helps.

Simply identify the movie and turn it in with your first answer at Trivia for five bonus points.

The answer to last week’s Invisible Movie was “The Running Man.”
