What is a good overall, underrated Christmas movie to watch? Hopefully something I've never seen.
Well, if you're looking for some awful cheesy Santa movies this year, try this one:
A nonexistent budget, plot holes galore, ninety percent of the plot having nothing to do with Christmas or Santa (indeed, it's basically a totally different film bookended with the story of Santa taking a wrong turn at Albuquerque and crashing his sleigh on a beach, where he heat-strokes, apparently, and has some real trippy dreams), and a very creepy theme-park mascot showing up to lend a paw make for a very...
interesting movie indeed.
I'm also watching a lot of the
other kind of bad Santa movies, as in
featuring Santas who are evil:
Krampus, Santa's Slay, Bad Santa, Letters To Satan Claus, and
A Madea Christmas--the last one is a stretch somewhat, as, though not really evil, Madea
is loud, ill-tempered, and often very destructive.
I'm also noticing a lot of time-travel and "Groundhog Day" plots turn up in these films, which I shall dissect in a separate post.
