Oogie Boogie Man Quotes in The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

Oogie Boogie Man: I am the shadow on the moon at night / Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.

Oogie Boogie Man: Well well well. What have we here? Sandy Claws, huh? Ooo I'm really scared! So you're the one everybody's talking about?

[laughs]

Oogie Boogie Man: [singing] You're joking, you're joking/I can't believe my eyes/You're joking me, you've gotta be/ This can't be the right guy! He's ancient, he's ugly/ I don't know which is worse! I might just spit a seam now if I don't die laughing first!

Oogie Boogie Man: Oh, the sound of rolling dice to me is music in the air, / 'cause I'm a gambling Boogie Man, although I don't play fair. / It's much more fun, I must confess, with lives on the line. / Not mine, of course, but yours, old boy, / now, that'll be just fine.

Santa: [singing] Release me now or you'll have to face the dire consequences. / The children are expecting me, so please come to your senses.

Oogie Boogie Man: [singing] You're jokin', you're jokin'! / I can't believe my ears! / Would someone shut this fella up? / I'm drownin' in my tears! / It's funny, I'm laughing! / You really are too much. / And now, with your permission, / I'm going to do my stuff.

[snake dangles from his mouth]

Santa: [fearfully] What are you going to do?

Oogie Boogie Man: I'm gonna do the best I can!

Oogie Boogie Man: J-J-J-Jack! But they said you were dead. You must be - double dead!

Oogie Boogie Man: Ashes to askes and dust to dust! Ohh... I'm feeling weak - with hunger! One more roll o'the dice oughta do it!

[places the dice in the skull shaker but receives a pair of ones]

Oogie Boogie Man: WHAT? SNAKE-EYES!

[strikes the table hard enough to overturn them and get a larger number]

Oogie Boogie Man: [after having his sack body ripped open] Now look what you've done! My bugs! My bugs! My bugs!

Oogie Boogie Man: Are you a gambling man, Santa?
