What makes a Christmas movie a Christmas movie? We'll try to answer that question through a lighthearted discussion of some of our favorite seasonal flicks. Exploring the sub-genres of Christmas comedies, Christmas horror, and feel-good family films, we'll pull out the connecting threads and notice unexpected similarities.
Films discussed:
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
Elf
Gremlins
Krampus
It's a Wonderful Life
Muppet Christmas Carol
