Fandango's 10 worst Christmas moviesMovie ticket website Fandango polled customers to come up with the ultimate holiday flop, and now has a list of the top 10 worst Christmas movies ever made. The top pick for worst Christmas movie ever was 1964's B-movie “Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.” According to the New York Times, the flick cost only $20,000 and features a cardboard set! Other top contenders included “Home Alone 3” (the one without Macaulay Culkin), Hulk Hogan’s 1996 flick “Santa With Muscles,” and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s holiday family comedy “Jingle All the Way.”
Check out the final results: 1. "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" Funnily enough,“Santa Claus Conquers the Martians” is back on the big screen this holiday. ( Fandango says it’s a coincidence.) In case you’ve never had the pleasure, the movie’s playing in New York and Los Angeles and a few other cities until Christmas. View the list of theaters at SantaMartiansMovie.com. |

It's in reality a great and helpful piece of info. I'm happy that you just shared this useful information with us. Please stay us up to date like this. Thank you for sharing.
Hey there, You have done a great job. I will certainly digg it and in my opinion suggest to my friends. I'm confident they will be benefited from this site.
Hi my family member! I wish to say that this post is amazing, great written and come with almost all vital infos. I would like to peer more posts like this .
Good theme, used to use it but decided to change over to another one just recently. Psicologas en rosario y psicologia en rosario para la ansiedad y depresion o depresivo. Sigmund Freud estubo en Argentina.
I think Christmas with the Kranks should've been number one, not just for being terrible, but for having a pretty dubious message about conformity. When the guy who wants to save his money and do something different from everyone else for Christmas is ultimately painted as the bad guy, your movie has some seriously messed up priorities.
What about Santa's Slay starring Bill Goldberg. That was pretty bad
Jack Frost with Michael Keeton was a good movie!
This should be number one: 7. "Home Alone 3"
Hey, I like "Jingle All the Way"... whatever.
How about Kiss Saves Santa? SO bad, it's good.
I don't know about bad, but "Badder Santa" with Bill Bob Thornton was far and away the best.
You forgot "Odumbo leaves me a gift under the Christmas tree. An unemployment check that bounced"
You forgot about Santa slay
I hated Christmas with the Cranks. That movie was so annoying. Never had I wanted to pummel people more, than while watching that movie. Ugh !
Santa Claus conquers the martians is a classic .
Silent Night, Deadly Night is a classic! Obviously not a feel good movie, but for anyone that likes a little gore, it's great!
I agree with the whole list.
And 'Home Alone 3' once made me fall asleep on a flight I once took, and I NEVER sleep on planes.
One problem with the list. Unlike the first 2 Home Alone movies number 3 isn't actually a Christmas movie. The premise is the kid is home sick from school. Not a victim of neglectful parents. True it takes place during the winter, but Christmas nor any holiday is mentioned.
No contest... "Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny". Makes "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" look like "Citizen Kane".
Sounds like this list should have been "The 25 Worst Xmas Movies."
ION television is putting out some rather bad stinkers this year. Like, "Christmas Heist" and "Golden Christmas 2" to name a couple. The six new movies they financed are some of the worst drek ever put on television. If last year's selections were not bad enough. Its obvious that Brandon Burgess had lost his freaking mind. The man makes $15M a year and can't come up with anything better than Christmas Heist. I would classify it as the worst movie ever made but that would give credence to it even being a movie. Its actually closer to being a high school media production project. Kind of in the same vein as Palmetto Point, another boneheaded Burgess creation.
"Bad Santa" has to be worse than most of these!
I just watched Jingle All the Way & Ernest Saves Christmas! I love both of those movies! AND...I have Jack Frost on DVD and will watch it before Christmas again...like I do every year.......I hope by Jack Frost, they mean the horror flick, because the one with Michael Keaton is great!
What no Santa Claus and the Ice cream Bunny? That is the worst Christmas movie of all time. It makes Santa Claus conquers the Martians look like an Oscar winning performance by comparison.
What was the one with Goldberg? I remember a lot of t!tt!es in that sh!t.
"One Magic Christmas" – perhaps an artistic success, but the most depressing movie EVER!
The writer of this post is deluded. "Jingle all the way" is a great famkliy-oriented Christmas movie. We watch it (and bought the dvd) yearly. Definitely in our family's Christmas movie rotation.
Now, now, Children! Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is so dreadful it's great! And all about family values. I have a mentally challenged daughter who "gets it." Watch it with your kids. Or, if you don't have kids, watch it with some spiked egg nog. ~smile~
Agree with everything on that list except for Santa Clause Conquers the Martians. Use to watch this every Christmas and it is good campy fun. Sort of like watching an Ed Wood movie, it is so bad it is a good. They left off the list any of those stupid movies with Tim Allen in them.
My favourite Christmas movies are Christmas Story, Christmas Carol (with Alastair Simms) and It's a Wonderful Life. Elf and Bad Santa are good for a laugh and for a good scare, you can't go wrong with Black Christmas.
There are a lot worse Christmas movies out there than Home Alone 3. Bad Santa for one, Elf and any of the Tim Allen movies.
Jingle all the Way started out ok then rapidly devolved into an unfunny live action cartoon that was so over the top and stupid. Anybody who claims a Christmas Story is crap is a moron and probably is the reason why films like Twilight did so well at the box office. If you're sick of that movie then you probably shouldn't have watched it for the whole marathon:P
Ernest Saves Christmas is one of THE best Christmas movie of all times. Ranks up there with White Christmas and the 1947 Miracle on 34th Street. Where else can one see Santa pretend he's a truck full o' pizen snakes to save Christmas?
Saving Christmas. Why was it on the WORST Christmas movie list? Two words. Ben Affleck. Nuff Said. Ok, now about Ernest. If you remember his movies, they were meant to be stupid! This was a fun movie if you were even the slightest bit a fan or just wanted to have a fun time and a bad choice for the list. Speaking of Bad, Bad Santa should be on the top of the list. Only saving grace of that movie was Lauren Graham. Horrible movie and should have been included.
I thought "Elf" was one of the worst Christmas movies ever.
Jtp, I completely agree! I never understood why this schmaltzy, one-joke film receives so much adulation. I can’t stand it.
Before I even clicked on the link to see the list, I said–Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, hands down! I saw that movie when I was ten, and was bored to death. I just kept walking up and down the movie aisle, and went to the bathroom probably six times, so I wouldn't fall asleep.
List fails without the Star Wars Holiday Special.
The Star Wars Holiday Special was a television show, wasn't it? It wouldn't qualify for inclusion.
Yes, it was a Christmas special shown only once. Apparently dancing Ewoks and Chewbacca was enough for Lucas to pull it from the airwaves forever. If there is a 10 Worst TV Christmas Specials, this would be close if not on the top.
Ask Gene Simmons..did they not make a "KISS" saves Christmas movie/cartoon ??
That was on an episode of Family Guy. I thought they just made that up.
"Deck the Halls" was a riot. I highly recommend the movie.
Can't speak to any of the others... have not seen them.
I liked Christmas with the Kranks
Surviving Christmas and Christmas with the Kranks?? I know you could have found two better for your list than that. They were pretty good movies.
While not a movie, lets not forget the Star Wars Christmas Holiday Special.
I liked Silent Night, Deadly Night (aka Black Chrsitmas and, as I recall, Slay ride), but I could do without all the others; personally, I'd put the first Home Alone on the list, and Ernest Saves Christmas. And, if you include TV movies, the Christmas Shoes.
Which Jack Frost? The horror flick of the one with Michael Keaton? I mean, they were both pretty terrible, but the horror one edges out the other by quite a bit in its rediculousness. At least the other Jack Frost had Michael Keaton...he was Batman!.
Another christmas movie that we watch every year, Black Christmas. It's an oldie, when Margo Kidder was still sane. But it's good if you have a warped sence of humour over some of the sappy movies.
Yeah, they made a remake of that back in like 2005....it was sick and had some atrocious acting.
I can't believe Jingle All the Way is on this list. That movie is awesome! The Governator + Sinbad, come on...
anyone else notice in the picture, on the Home alone 3 case, someone had the audacity to say "better than the first two". Am I the only one outraged by this?
What about the movie, "Santa's Slay?" ft. Bill Goldberg? lol it's pretty bad.
Ernest Saves Christmas was an awesome movie.
I'm glad that Christmas with the Kranks is on the list. It was the first movie that came to mind when I clicked on the link for this article. My grandfather thought it was great and made my dad and I endure that atrocity a few years ago. It is the most cliched Christmas movie ever and flat out boring.
WHAT?!? Jingle all the way was awesome! So was Ernest Saves Christmas.
How about Santa's Slay with Bill Goldberg as an evil demonic Santa Clause. Classic!!!
I'm not going to argue that Silent Night, Deadly Night and Jingle All the Way are great films, but they're each boatloads better than Jack Frost and Santa With Muscles put together.
No one should speak ill of Ernest. He SAVED Christmas
I'm with you, Aaron...Ernest has more heart than a lot of these posters do, AND he saved Christmas!
The only way "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is palatable is if you watch the MST3K version.
The MST3K version – like all of their stuff – is HILARIOUS!
Surviving Christmas was funny.
C'mon – I lOVED "Deck the Halls"!..........
There are quite a few movies from this list that I love. IJingle All The Way, Jack Frost, Ernest Saves Christmas,
Wow! I mean CLAUS not Clause, Duh!!!
Santa Clause Conquers the Matrians is a cult classic!!! I remember watching that when I was young. The theme has a rather catchy jingle to it – "They spell it S-A-N-T-A-C-L-A-U-S; Hooray for Santy Clause!!!" I love it!
Jingle All the Way was kind of funny. Definitely wouldn't put it in the top 10 worst.
Your forgot about Santa Claus (1959). Its truly hilariously awful
Silent Night, Deadly Night is not a Christmas movie. It is a horror movie that takes place at Christmas. Is Die Hard a Christmas movie because it took place at Christmas?
How is "Home Alone 3" a Christmas movie? I don't remember one scene in that movie (unlike the first two) that revolved around Christmas so much as the movie takes place in Chicago during the winter...
Wait a minute....Silent Night, Deadly Night is a CLASSIC!!!
Xmas movies in general suck.
So, Brissa, you do. Like you did last night. But hey, you're good at it...so be proud!
I actually like Christmas with the Kranks. It was a good movie!
I guess because it was on TV that Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics isn't on the list.
Santa Claus Conquers the Martians was not that bad.
I think they polled ten people, and those ten were jewish. Jingle all the Way and Kristmas with the Kranks are both good holiday movies ....holiday movies are desgined for fun, not for Oscar nominations!
Obviously, the people compiling the list have never seen "Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure". This goes beyond bad. Not so bad to the point where there is some redeeming quality due to how bad it is, but actually, truly, bad. The only saving grace was having Sung Hi Lee walk around on an island.
Deck the Halls is stupid. I can tolerate the obnoxious neighbor, but the Kristin Davis character is stupid. I can't believe how fast she turns against her husband, to the point she goes behind his back and allows her teenage daughter to date a sailor that no one even knows. Her other great idea is to write a cookbook called "Food Food"?!?!
Sorry but I love Ernest Saves Christmas. He's an idiot but it's a cute movie!
Lmao!
Okay, so first of all there's TWO Home Alone films without Culkin, and of the two Home Alone 3 is clearly superior. Home Alone 4 is not just one of the worst Christmas films ever made, it's one of the worst films ever made, period. There are PLENTY of other Christmas-themed or related movies much worse than the films on this list. I think whoever made this article just used some lazy google searching and didn't actually do any visual research on it whatsoever.
Jingle All the Way has is terrific fun and should not be on this list. There is a Home Alone 4 that is just atrocious. Why is Silent Night, Deadly Night included? That's a horror movie, not a Christmas movie. There are tons of bad Christmas movies that have come out over the decades. What a dumb list.
Ernest Saves Christmas was not that bad. I liked it as a little kid and would still watch it today if it was on.
psst.... it's called Amazon. buy it. i did.....
Written by Lindsey Hunter Lopez? Who are you to say these are the 10 worst. Look at you, had to keep your last name when you got married..? Hahaha Can tell from the start you think your too good for others. Go away looser.
Totally off base with Jingle All the Way. That movie is funny. Those people must not be parents
Well Christmas with the Kranks, Deck the Halls & Ernest saves Christmas are some of my favorite Christmas movies. Who do they poll? Nobody I know...lol Merry Christmas everybody...
Silent Night Deadly Night was my favorite. Oh well.
A few years after Home Alone 3 came out I managed to catch about 15 minutes of the movie on cable television during the holidays and I have to admit that the young actor's lazy eye syndrome seriously creeped me out. Then I realized that even in the trailer you can tell that while one eye is focused, the other one just sort of hangs there like a paralyzed puppy waiting to be euthanized. So there I was sitting there watching that movie and all I could focus on was that poor kid's eye that he obviously had a problem focusing.
Poor kid, and at least in Jim Carrey's movie Liar Liar the cameramen made effort not to outright focus on the boy's painfully obvious lazy eye.
Interesting movies
I would have to agree with Lady M – we love Jingle All the Way and Deck the Halls – as for Home Alone 3, the WORST – not even a 'Home Alone' movie! Not ONE original character, just trying to ride on the success of previous Home Alone movies – does not even deserve to have the Home Alone name! And anything with 'Ernest' in it -YUCK!
Forutnately i have only seen Jack Frost and HA3 on this list...
I loved "Jack Frost"!!! Its a tear jerk-er with enough comedy to keep things on the lighter side.
there are no bad xmas movies for a kid,,,,adults yes! kids no!!!
Bill Murry's "Scrooged" should have been high on that list.
pssssh, they don't even mention WHY "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is on this list: it's a Mystery Science Theater classic! if you don't know about it, look it up and see why it's even famous enough to make this dubious list. MST3k made it worth watching
Where is four christmases with Reese and Vince? that movie stunk something awful.-
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all.
Jingle all the way and Jack Frost are great... I loved them when I was a kid. My little brother LOVED home alone 3. These movies are silly, but fun and enjoyable for kids.
I vote for the Jack Frost with Michael Keaton being one of the worst...not the other Jack Frost campy horror film.
Fortunately, Phil, your vote means nothing because you are the biggest fool on the planet if you think that. What are you jewish?
Don't forget Gremlins! (Hardly a bad movie by any stretch, though)
Though I am a little surprised that Santa's Slay (starring Bill Goldberg and Dave Thomas) didn't make the list – Fran Drescher and Chris Kattan even make "cameo" appearances...
Why on Earth is A Christmas Story not on this list? That is the most god awful Christmas movie in the history of the world. My family and I spent the entire movie wishing the little brat would shoot his eye out just so the movie could end quicker.
How come "It's a wonderful life" didn't make the list? Not only is it one of the worst Christmas movies ever, it's also one of the very worst movies ever filmed period!
Star Wars Christams Special.Worst television event ever!
How is Tim Allen's "Santa Claus" not on this list?
Because it is a good film!
I agree with most of those choices. However, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is SOOOO bad it became funny. The others are just bad, but not bad enough to be anything but bad.
Hey, some of my favorite movies are on this list! Looks like the author is taking them too seriously, and leaving out "Bad Santa"? I can think of a few other stinkers that would make this list look like a Disney lineup, all made "for the holidays". Missed the boat here.
I'm surprised to see Jungle All The Way. I watched that movie every year \_("_")_/
The worst Christmas Special ever is hands down the Star Wars Christmas Special. It's insanely rare to find. Lucas doesnt even like to admit it exists but you can find it. Demonoid.com has torrents of it. it'll never be shown on public television for as long as Lucas is alive.
interestingly enough, he hates that production to the utmost capacity yet he created the atrocious Episodes 1 – 3 and felt they were master pieces... amazing...
These liberal nazi's will write up and article associating the words "Worst" with "Christmas" but when they write up what is the top 10 "Best" they'll use "Holiday" films.
Keep living in your fantasy lala land. Do you realize how delusional you sound? The conspiracy against Christmas ...
Oh, grow up and get over your persecution complex.
Its not technically a movie, but the Star Wars Christmas Special is remarkably vile and unwatchable.
Are they going to write up an article about the 10 best Christmas movies? or was this a liberal shot at associating "Worst" with "Christmas"?
Not every show about Muslims has to be about terrorism, and not every article needs to bow low to the graven image of christmasodoltry.
Christmas is the "Worst".
Christmas itself is the worst. It wasn't a big holiday even just 200 years ago, but you'd never know it today. Especially with the way we depend on it to jack up our GDP every year. For me it's just getting old, tired, trite, lame, banal, stale, blah.. same s–t different year.
Having said that, "Bad Santa" is the best Christmas (or holiday) movie EVER.
The only reason Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is on this list is because of Mystery Science Theater 3000
I agree with 9 of them, but I personally liked the Ernest Saves Christmas one. Jim Varney died far too young......
apparently no one has heard of the star wars christmas special. it was half dreadful yet half fantastic. you can't get it anywhere though – George Lucas made sure of that.
Jingle All the Way? Really. Sinbad and the Governator. That's cinematic gold. Only way it could have been better is if Brendan Frazier and a talking CGI animal had been involved.
Hey they forgot about Home Alone 4 which was worse than 3!
Where r u christmas? I need to find u haha
Merry christmas to all and to all a good night!! Love reading these funny azz comments
How can you guys not like A Christmas Story? It's a freaking classic. Elf is alright but it's a little too much for me. There are funny parts in it though.
"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" on its own is terrible, but the MST3K version is a classic!
I have sited two of those movies as my favorite Christmas movies. They will always be classics in my eyes.
Ernest Saves Christmas AND Santa Claus Conquers the Martians
I grew up with those movies! And I'm 25.
How did Santa Claus the Movie (staring Dudley Moore and John Lithcow) NOT make the top of this list???!!! It was one of the worst pieces of garbage ever put on film. I think it was soooo bad that Marquee actually erased it from their memory? lol
The problem I havewith Jack Frostis the idea that thispoor kid has to go through losing hisfatheragain atthe end when he melts or whatever it is he did. Any kid who ever lost his father whould hate that. Think about that Your father dies and then yeah you get him back to play hockey with and then he dies all over again. And wile Im at it, ever realize that casper is a dead little boy? That sucks!
Santa Conquers the Martians is pretty bad, but it's fun to watch when you've had way too much to drink.
It was also Pia Zadora's first credited movie. Nice to know her career went downhill from there.
How did a Very Brady Christmas not get rung up on this list?
Some things people just block-out to preserve their sanity. + Jack Frost was a excellent B flick, but Jack Frost 2 Revenge of the Mutant Killer Snowman was a sad excuse for a film.
Jack Frost?? No way! And I liked "Christmas with the Kranks", too!
Honorable mention should go to Elf. I hate that movie. I hate seeing endless commercials for that movie! ARRRRRGGGHHH
Ernest Saves Christmas should be on the best Christmas movie list.
I know what ya mean Verne
I agree Ernest Saves Christmas is a staple in my home every year. It is most likely the only one of the Ernest movies I truly enjoy.
I actually liked 8,9 and 10 on the list. surviving christmas had some funny moments in it.
Likely every movie on that list has some defenders. But there are a few films I'd had to it that are actually considered classics. There was one called The Gathering which was an Emmy-winning film with Ed Asner about a dying old man who gathers his family for one last Christmas together. I consider it one of the worst because Christmas is a depressing enough time of year as it is without a movie coming along with such a depressing concept, especially for those of us unlucky enough to have in fact lost a close loved one during a past Christmas week. I just found out when I did a fact-check before posting this (some of us posters do in fact fact-check ourselves!) that, amazingly, the film was produced by Hanna Barbera of all people! (The guys who made The Flintstones, etc)
Christmas With The Kranks-Great Movie! I'd love to skip Christmas go on a great vacation
Why, oh why, did this list not include that wretched "Christmas Story" or ELF?
NO movie is good enough to deserve an annual 24-hr marathon....certainly not that waste of film. And ELF was enough to make me want to go shoot MY eyes out. Both those movies must burn for all eternity.
I love Jack Frost, that's a great movie! Makes me cry every time. Fandango has NO taste in movies!
Me too, Alanna. Something has to be wrong with you if you don't cry at the end of this movie. It's awesome. Fandago stinks.
Personally, I don't really care which is the worst (though home alone three was terrible)
I do care for what people watch the most. I think it's not Christmas without A Charlie Brown Christmas.
I love earnest saves chriatms, jack frost and christmas with the kranks! This list is so totally wrong!!!! Lol
Surviving Christmas is hilarious & very cute, too. The ones that were polled for this list are obviously MOrons.
I agree, Survivng Christmas is a solid movie. Me and the wife rather enjoyed it.
Jingle All the Way is a great movie! Who made this list?
I would completely agree! I love Jingle all the Way, I watch it every year. It's one of my favorite Christmas movies..."I'ts Turbo Time!" Makes me laugh just thinking about it...
I haven't caught "A Christmas Story" yet this year. Is it being boycotted? No one is playing it.
Christmas Story is my favorite all time. They play it Christmas Eve through Christmas Day. You can usually catch it on TBS, it runs 24 hours straight.
It should be banned from ever being played again, except on July 4.
Earnest Saves christmas shoudl not be on that list. That move maybe be silly or stoopid, but it was written to be that way on purpose. That a big difference from Home Alone 3, which was trying to be a quality sequel. You could put Earnest Saves Christmas on the top 10 silliest Christmas movies, but not top 10 worst.
There was also this Mexican film called Santa Clause that should be on this list – MST 3000 had a field day with it!
Christmas with the Kranks-really? I loved that movie. I can name 50 Christmas movies that are aweful and Kranks would never make the list
Christmas with the Kranks was nails on the chalkboard boring.
Christmas with the Kranks was the first time I'd ever left a theater feeling personally angry at the universe. They use it in Guantanamo Bay to coerce confessions from terror suspects.
Christmas with the Kranks is one of the most cliched and boring Christmas movies ever made. Not once did I laugh. Citing through it was pure agony, an agony I have rarely felt during a movie. If I was in the theater I would have walked out but instead I was watching it at home with my grandpa who enjoyed it. Christmas with the Kranks was the first movie that came to mind when I saw this article's headline and I'm glad it is one the list. It actually deserves to be higher than 10.
That direct to video piece of trash was almost as bad as the book! One of the worst of the year. Garbage in, garbage out.
First off, what does this have to do with the article? It's not a Christmas movie. Second off, yes, it was a very poorly done film and it doesn't do justice to a great and very recently relative book.
Where is Nestor The Long Eared Christmas Donkey, Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny, and The Star Wars Holiday Special?
This list sucks
♫Nestor was a donkey/♫Who seldom laughed nor played.../♫Cuz know one ever loved him in the stable where he stayed/♫All the camels teased him and the other donkeys too/♫They said "Look at little Nestor, there's nothing he can do...
That song has been stuck in my head for at least 25 years.
i watch ernst saves xmas all year round with my son. Yeknow what i mean vern...
First i hate "Home Alone." It's so Damn illogical any real Robber would have just Shot The Kid.
My 2 favorite Christmas films are Its A Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol with Alistair Sim
You and everyone else who has seen as least two Christmas movies.
And it is a sacrilege to show the Colorized version of either film! May the person who authorized those versions be forced to eat all the fruitcake his relatives send him.
And just what is wrong with Santa Claus Conqures the Martians, hmmmm?
Oh whatever! "Jingle All the Way" is freakin' AWESOME!
Lol..yea, I remembered that one also. There is also a black and white movie "Silent Night, Bloody Night" (Not the same as "Silent Night, Deadly Night). Another escaped maniac..lol.
Hey, I liked Jack Frost.
So did I, Mike. It's one of the best Christmas movies ever made. If you don't shed a tear at the end, you're made of stone and shouldn't be celebrating Christmas, anyway.
Is this person kidding, Jingle All the Way is great. I see this happen every year at Christmas where parents do stupid things just so their kids can get the "It" toy. OK I confess I paid $70 for a Lalaloopsy silly hair on ebay but it was worth it.
black xmas sucked, stupid horror movie.
Black Christmas is awesome. It was one of the first slasher films and inspired Friday the 13th, Halloween and many others. Highly underrated movie. Who doesn't want to watch a good slasher movie on Christmas Eve?
Lol. yea..you are right. I forgot about the horror one..lmao. That was stupid.
Which Jack Frost? The terrible horror film with Shannon Elizabeth or the horrible family film with Michael Keaton? I mean, they were both extra-horrible, but only one made the list. So, which is it?
love ernrst +santa clause movies+jackfrost
Die Hard is the best xmas movie ever! YippeeKaiYaY!!!
Diehard is not a Christmas movie
Cmon Jedi ... of course Die Hard is a Christmas movie. I mean really ... it opens with the song Xmas in Harlem – it closes with Let is Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow – and John McClaine is going to LA to see his future ex-wife at her company's Christmas party. Get with the progam dude!!! lol
Die Hard 1 and 2 are Christmas traditions in this house.
You're just another American who saw too many movies as a child.
Another orphan of a bankrupt culture who thinks he's John Wayne.
lol at Mike in NYC!!!
@Barnacle Bill
Was always kinda partial to Roy Rogers actually.
Die Hard 1 and 2 are christmas movies, same with Lethal Weapon. Now that's a christmas movie marathon
Bad Santa and Buddy the Elf
Totally agree on Bad Santa!...never so depressed after watching a 'Christmas' movie.
Jingle All the Way is a classic!
I love nester the christmas donkey and its a wonderful life
Jingle All the Way is awesome wth is going on
I am with you, I happen to like this film and my kids love it.
whoever made this list must be irreverent! Santa Clause is the whole meaning of Christmas. Ask Macy's!
I have been wanting to watch Jingle All the Way.
You guys forgot Fred Clause! Totally Awful!!
I agree – that movie stunk.
Jingle all the Way was Great... Home Alone 3 wasn't terrible either...
Forgot to put "4 Christmases" on the list of terrible movies.
"4 christmases" isn't even Vince Vaughn's worst christmas movie.
I wish I could unsee home alone 3
Also I dont know about the hulkster moviewise
But I did like suburban commando
and real american,his hit single
Hey leave the hulkster out of it as a kid i loved that movie, adults need to think of wut the kids like more then wut they like. Jack frost is also another flick that most kids like rather then adults.. Duh.!!!!! Allow a kid to coment on wut he likes and see the results....
No. You demonstrate with remarkable clarity why you are considered idiots.
I like your comment, but it's spelled w-h-a-t not w-u-t. Let's not lose what English is left!
Ernest rocks!
Ernest definitely rocks! How could someone not like such a heartwarming film? I believe that Ernest is helping Santa as we speak.
Ernest died a long time ago
Ernest was the EP-i-tome of excellence.
Ernest Saves Christmas is one of my favorite Christmas movies :p
Know what I mean, Vern?
this list is dissappointing. Home Alone 3 is cute, I loves some Earnest and, JackFrost was kind of weird but entertaining. Does this critic even remember what it's like to be a kid???
JINGLE ALL THE WAY IS A CLASSIC!!! Whomever put this list together needs to be slapped!
You should be slapped for making that comment
It's a pretty silly movie, but its a classic at my house too.
That movie is so awful, it makes me want to slap Santa Claus.
Anybody with the name Jedi needs to be slapped....HARD!
So glad to see Dolly Parton's classic, Smoky Mountain Christmas, didn't make the list, lol.
I love Silent Night, Deadly Night. It's fun seeing Santa going out on a killing spree. Lmao!
Dont forget Mr. Hankey. He brings Holiday Cheer.
HEEEIIDDDDEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gosh, y'all smell a lot like flowers!
I love "Jack Frost" with Michael Keaton. I still watch it when it comes on tv!
I'm with you, I liked it.
Me, too! That's one of the Christmas movies I always try and watch.
Terrible movie. Every year at this time I find it on TV and try to give it another shot. But it still is terrible.
This article doesn't indicate which Jack Frost is on the list – Michael Keaton snowman or homicidal snowman.
Yossarian is correct, it doesn't specify which Jack Frost is on the list, I really enjoyed watching the family one. I heard reviews on the other Jack Frost and it's supposed to be a really bad movie.
By the way, there are probably other worse movies people don't know of that should be on this list...
I love Jack Frost!!!
Jack Frost hahaha....I remeber when that family oriented one came out and all I could remember was the original slasher flick with the homicidal snowman and the bath scene with the carrot....oh my..... I'm pretty sure this one rightly deserved to be on the list haha.
Agreed – Jack Frost was so good.
I'm with you, I watch it every year and continue to enjoy it.
I like the original, classic, animated version much better.
Is everyone getting ready for Christmas? I sure am. I hope everyone will have a happy one. Maybe all the little kids will be happy.
The kids would have a better time if you would stop posting on here and spend time with them
I hoep you have a happy Christmas too Trisha!!
Silent Night, Deadly Night is a Christmas classic! Hahaha!
You have no taste in movies
We actually saw part of the filming of "Silent Night Deadly Night". They were filming a night scene in Weehawkin, NJ, just before New Years. No snow that year, they were using plastic flakes. The ambient temps were in the 60s at 2 am, it was unusually warm that year.
Yogi has no sense of humor.
TOTALLY!!! I love it when that dude gets his head chopped off as he sleds down the mountain!!!!
Garbage day!!!.....ok I know that's from Silent Night Deadly Night 2....but still.
What Yossarian said.
If i live until going home time, ive got a hamburger waiting for me! ! ! Plus 2 happy kitties who will be glad to see me! ! ! Y E S ! ! !
Having a warm furry/hairy thing waiting for you to stroke is what life is all about. I prerfer the human variety.
I liked A Waltons Christmas. Also Christmas Story.
What about "Bad Santa"? "F*** me Santa! F*** me Santa!"
And yet somehow the He-Man and She-Ra Christmas Special was not included on the list. Could it have been omitted because it was a TV special? It is utter crap, btw.
Some of my favorites are on here...Jingle All the Way is a classic...love it. I love Christmas with the Kranks (Free Frosty, Free Frosty). Deck the Halls is watched at this house also...not the greatest but would not have but it in the top ten worst movies.
8 Crazy Nights from Adam Sandler is the worst Christmas movie.
silent night deadly night one of my favorite films!!! these lists must be made by either women or gays.
Jordan, 8 Crazy Nights is a Hanukkah movie, not Christmas.
@Jesse – I don't know which 'gays' you're including in your stereotype, but all the ones I know LOVE horror movies. Watch your words – they're makin' ya look like a fool.
@Whatever – VERY well said to 'jesse'. I'm so tired of people throwing all kinds of words around. They are powerful. Stop it!
Beauty! Attention! Check this! Christmas is coming!!! You wanna find your lover to have this wonderful time together? You know any billio;naire club? BillionaireFriends.COMit's the best cl;ub for seek;ing the ric;h in the world.....It's for rich and wealthy people who are seeking long last and enduring relati;onships! Hope everyone can find each love there.
I don't get why everyone pans 'Jingle All the Way'. Yes, it is ridiculous, but so is 'The Waterboy'. It's just fun, especially at Christmas and Sinbad is a scream!
