OMFYS Holiday Special 2022 w/ A Carol for Another Christmas (64) + Horror Express (72)

It's the first ever Old Movies for Young Stoners Holiday Special! Bob, Cory, Philena and Greg are back to spread some holiday cheer, or maybe just baffle and amuse you. First, we discuss the new "Sight and Sound" 100 Greatest Films of All Time list that just dropped last week. Does "Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles" deserve the top spot? Should "Citizen Kane" reign in perpetuity? What happened to "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Touch of Evil???" The young stoners, the olds and Paul Schrader have some thoughts about this. Then we take a look at "Carol for Another Christmas." Funded by Xerox, written by Rod Serling, and starring Peter Sellers and Sterling Hayden fresh off of Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove," this is probably the bleakest version of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" and it's streaming now on HBOMax. After that, Bob shares his family's Christmas tradition of getting sloshed on rum and eggnog and watching "Horror Express," a 1972 Spanish shocker starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee but utterly ruled by Telly Savalas as a power-mad Cossack. Why is this a Christmas movie? Listen and find out. Bob does explain it... Kind of. "Horror Express" is now streaming on Shudder. Happy New Year everyone! See you in 2023 with Season 2.
