Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

I love all the different versions of "A Christmas Carol". It's the ultimate Christmas story, IMO.
It's also interesting that the best Scrooge of them all, Michael Cain, ended up in the Muppet version.  | |

OOH! This isn't a movie per se, but I just remembered I have to bust out my Pee Wee's Playhouse Christmas Special! It isn't the holidays until I've seen Grace Jones bust out of a crate and sing "Little Drummer Boy" with her foam helmet and metallic chestplate.  | |

Black Christmas (1974) - Directed by Bob Clark (who also directed A Christmas Story, which is a completely different type of classic), this is one of the best horror films of all time, and the real slasher prototype of the 70's. Everything that came later in the slasher genre was ripped from this. Halloween is almost a carbon copy, and John Carpenter worked with Bob Clark. When A Stranger Calls took the "killer phoning from inside the house" theme and both that film and Scream used the phone as a device of terror. This film also pioneered extensive POV shots. The final girl here is the gorgeous Olivia Hussey (and her character is not the typical slasher virgin) and the film also stars Margot Kidder as an alcoholic sorority girl (hilarious comic relief), Andrea Martin, and genre vets Lynne Griffin and John Saxon. The slightly downbeat ending is also wonderful. Anyway, they've just remade it, so look for a REALLY shitty update in theatres December 25th. Or better yet, don't, and just rent the original.
You never see the psycho - just his eye through the crack of a door, in what is now a classic shot.  [Edited 12/16/06 7:24am] | |

I have to mention Trading Places again. It's not strictly a holiday movie, but it's one of my favorites and just happens to be set during the holidays My Legacy

A Jetson's Christmas Carol
http://images.rottentomat...163151.jpg Also, I love: The Jetson's Meet The Flintstones but I don't know if that includes a Christmas theme. http://images.rottentomat...179735.jpg However, my favorite holiday movie ever is Home For The Holidays! Holly Hunter, Robert Downy Jr. and Anne Bancroft are in it. It is a thanksgiving movie but it's so funny and true.

The Bishop's Wife (Cary Grant)
It's a Wonderful Life Charlie Brown's Christmas Elf The Wizard of Oz (although I'm not sure why I associate it with Christmas  )
The Christmas Story (Marathon on TBS so I can tune in and out all day and still see the whole movie) The Grinch (animated, original) I haven't watched one of these this year yet but it's not Christmas yet so i still have a little time. | |
