A Christmas Bonus

What makes a Christmas movie a Christmas movie? We'll try to answer that question through a lighthearted discussion of some of our favorite seasonal flicks. Exploring the sub-genres of Christmas comedies, Christmas horror, and feel-good family films, we'll pull out the connecting threads and notice unexpected similarities. Films discussed: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Elf Gremlins Krampus It's a Wonderful Life Muppet Christmas Carol — Want more in-depth discussions of these movies? Listen to our previous episodes on Elf, It's a Wonderful Life, and A Christmas Carol. And check out some very cool episodes on Krampus, Gremlins, and Muppet Christmas Carol by friend of the pod Verbal Diorama. — Check out our merch store for Midnight Myth, Boomerangerang, Sleep & Sorcery and Wheel of Ka tees and totes!
