The Nightmare before Christmas Film (1993) 20-Question Multiple Choice Quiz

The following quiz is a 20-question multiple choice quiz on Henry Selick's 1993 stop motion Christmas contemporary classic "Tim Burton's The Nightmare before Christmas" that can be used in an English, film studies, or media studies class. This assessment is not a trivia quiz about the story or production anecdotes; it is also not a simple, low-level comprehension quiz based on events in the film.
