Christmas is only 5 months away. You’re welcome. Did I just stress you out? Doesn’t change the fact that you should start buying gifts like a boss, now. If you need a break from said gift purchasing and you want to beat the heat, here is a list of my favorite Holiday flicks (in no particular order).
PS- I’m a big fan of shiny things.
Black Christmas
Crazy killer on the loose after a house full of sorority girls? Happy Holidays, Ladies. Weird Fact: The film is based a a string of actual murders in Canada around Christmas. Yikes.
Gremlins
Always pay attention to directions when caring for a gift.
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
Classic Chevy Chase.
Elf
Man-child and comic genius, Will Ferrell. “Buddy the Elf, what’s your favorite color?”
Edward Scissor Hands
Tim Burton at his Burton-y best. Johnny Depp plays an oddball like nobody’s business.
The Family Stone
Hands down, one of my all time faves, period. You’ll laugh, cry, and contemplate life.
Miracle on 34th Street
This film is all about believing. If you haven’t seen this, for shame.
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Danny Elfman‘s voice is now burned into my memory. A great holiday meets holiday twist. This needs to be turned into a Broadway musical, already! Can someone get on that?
Scrooged
Bill Murray. That is all.
The Muppet Christmas Carol
Who doesn’t love the Muppets? And can we get a what, what for Michael Caine?
8 Crazy Nights
A little Hanukka love for you all. You can keep pretending you don’t like Adam Sandler if you want to, but we all know you watch Billy Madison when it comes on TV… every weekend.
Love Actually
Another brilliant cast. “To Me, You Are Perfect”
It’s a Wonderful Life
The Ultimate “What If” movie. Jimmy Stewart is a talent like no other.
Home Alone
I feel like it’s your duty to watch this every year. “Merry Christmas, Ya Filthy Animal.”
A Christmas Story
We all have a bit of Ralphie in us. Do you remember the first time you said “Fuuuuuuudge”? I do.
We wanna know what films are on your list??
