Indeed, there’s no harm in watching something different this holiday season.

Just see to it to avoid some of the lame ones.

Good holiday horror movies are a rarity in the horror genre.

Directed byLee Harvey, its a sequel to the 1984 original Silent Night, Deadly Night.

It’s a terrible holiday horror movie, but one that’ll surely make viewers laugh.

With a ridiculous premise like this, it’s no wonder the film is completely absurd.

While not insultingly bad,It’s A Wonderful Knifeis a baffling mess lacking a coherent storyline.

When she wishes she was never born, she finds herself magically transported to a nightmarish parallel universe.

Wildly absurd and tons of fun,The Ginger Dead Manis a bad movie but an enjoyable one.

It’s so over-the-top and ridiculous that it’s hard not to laugh along with what’s happening.

Busey is at his best playing bizarre, outlandish characters, and he shines with his hilarious one-liners.

It’s a trashy film, but at least it never tries to take itself too seriously.

It’ll make viewers scratch their heads and bust at the seams with laughter.

It’s about a family on Christmas Eve, inviting their young neighbors to join them in the celebration.

But the night turns deadly as the supposedly harmless neighbors reveal sinister entities have taken over their bodies.

It’s a pretty generic story, lacking competent storytelling, directing, and acting.

Winnie’s life is less than wonderful one year after saving her town from a psychotic killer on Christmas Eve. When she wishes she was never born, she finds herself magically transported to a nightmarish parallel universe. With the murderous maniac now back, she must team up with a misfit to identify the culprit and get back to her own reality.

It was powerfully acted, brilliantly suspenseful, and undoubtedly iconic.

But its magic could never be fully repeated, especially regarding its two incredibly disappointing sequels.

LikeThe Ginger Dead Man, it thankfully never tries to take itself seriously.

It’s a pointless remake that fails to honor the film that came before it.

It undoubtedly reigns as the worst Christmas movie ever made.

A group of female students is stalked by a stranger during their Christmas break.
