Favorite Lesser Known Christmas Movies (2 Viewers)

[Optimus Prime]

We all know the classics, Christmas Story, Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, some version of Christmas Carol.

But which lesser known Christmas movies do you like?

I sort of like White Christmas with Bing Crosby

It may not be "lesser known", but Bad(er) Santa has become my favorite christmas movie of all time. I watch it every Christmas eve night after the kids go to bed. Of course I'm also a huge fan of Jingle All the Way.

jingle all the way and emitt otter jug band's Christmas are both awesome

The Lion in Winter

Don't know if it would qualify as lesser known but Year Without A Santa Clause (Rankin Bass)

My family and I watch Christmas Vacation every year, starring Cevy Case. I would not consider that a "lesser known" movie, but it has not been said yet. I laugh my butt off every time I get to the part where Eddie is emptying the septic tank, looks at the neighbors and says, "Merry Christmas! The ******* was full!" Classic.

LOL That sounds interesting. Did you actually sit through and watch the whole movie?

Santa Claus Defeats the Aliens (Pia Zadora, John Call, Leonard Hicks)

That movie is only watchable if you're viewing the MST3K version. Otherwise...blech.


I think the Ref qualifies as a lesser known of a great Christmas movie. Certainly captured a lot of aspects of family holiday dysfunction

I never would have expected this as a response. Very, very well played.

Die Hard the original

 

[Bleu Raeder]

Christmas in Connecticut w/Barbara Stanwick
Holiday Inn w/Bing Crosby (and the debut of the song White Christmas)
