‘Bad Santa’ Rises Below Vulgarity

A movie like Bad Santa shouldn’t exist but I’m glad it does. It came out two years after 9/11 when everything was expected to be just peachy. For God’s sake, a movie like Chicago won Best Picture that year. Remember Chicago? No. Well, no one does. The 2000s was the worst decade for American cinemaContinue reading “‘Bad Santa’ Rises Below Vulgarity”

‘Die Hard 2’ Is An Outrageous, Nonsensical Xmas Action Thriller

A movie like the first Die Hard took everyone by surprise. When people first saw the trailer of the movie featuring Bruce Willis as an action hero, they laughed. He was only known for his role as the wise-cracking David Addison on Moonlighting who thinks he’s a lot cooler than what he really is. IContinue reading “‘Die Hard 2’ Is An Outrageous, Nonsensical Xmas Action Thriller”

Christmas Is What You Make Of It

Christmas is almost here and the arctic blast on Thursday, Dec. 22 may be having many people changing their holiday plans. I read where there was 3,200 flights canceled in one day all over America and North America. And on top of that, there is a trifecta of illnesses where people are coming down withContinue reading “Christmas Is What You Make Of It”

‘You Better Watch Out’ For ‘Christmas Evil’

If you were to mention a movie about a man who dresses up as a snowman and begins murdering people, you’d immediately think of the controversial Silent Night, Deadly Night. But believe it or not, Christmas Evil, otherwise known as You Better Watch Out was released in 1980 to crickets. The movie begins in 1947Continue reading “‘You Better Watch Out’ For ‘Christmas Evil’”

‘Night Of The Comet’ Is A Christmas Comedy Horror Delight

Night of the Comet is one of those movies that seems to show that you can do a lot with so little. Produced on a shoestring budget of $700,000, it manages to still be a very effective movie. Before I continue, I’m going to say there are some spoilers ahead even though most of thisContinue reading “‘Night Of The Comet’ Is A Christmas Comedy Horror Delight”

Happy Festivus (For The Rest Of Us)

I want to wish each and everyone out there a Happy Festivus (for the rest of us). I don’t know if this is a really a holiday that some people celebrate but I don’t have any airing of grievances against any of you. I am very grateful for all the attention I get on here.Continue reading “Happy Festivus (For The Rest Of Us)”

The Worst Of The Worst Of Christmas Movies

Christmas seems to be a common theme in a lot of movies, but for every A Christmas Story there’s something like Christmas With the Kranks, a movie so repulsive and offensive in its delivery, you feel totally dumber for the time you spent watching it. Christmas With the Kranks is basically the dumbest, most ineptContinue reading “The Worst Of The Worst Of Christmas Movies”

‘Lethal Weapon’ Gave Us Shane Black’s Love Of Xmas And Violence

Ok, pop quiz. Name a 1980s action movie featuring a guncrazy white cop being aided by a more controlled black cop in dealing with a terrorist organization in the L.A. area. If you mentioned Die Hard, you wouldn’t be wrong. But I’m referring to the first Lethal Weapon that premiered in theaters almost a yearContinue reading “‘Lethal Weapon’ Gave Us Shane Black’s Love Of Xmas And Violence”
