Top 10 Worst Christmas Movies List
7 years ago
Hello and Merry Christmas everybody. Because Christmas is here, we have a catalog of movies featured in the holidays. However, some of them have little to no joy to them. So here I will count down the top 10 Worst Christmas movies in my opinion.
Santa's slay
When I saw the VHS cover for this movie, I thought it would be in the same level as Halloween or Friday the 13th. And it does have murder caused by Santa, it was more of a horror comedy than a horror movie. I guess it wasn't supposed to be taken seriously in the first place. My problem with this movie was that it wasn't scary. Jack Frost (Not the 1998 movie with Michael Keaton) was scarier than this movie. The silver lining for Bill Goldberg playing Santa in this film was that he met his future wife during the filming.
I'll be home for Christmas
So let me get this straight. A kid is bribed, yes bribed by his father to come home for Christmas. Some bullies strand him in a desert and he tries to get home in hilarious ways throughout the movie so that he can get a car. Really, all this kid cares about is the car. Also why did the bullies drop him of the middle of nowhere and why weren't they punished. Also the kid has a crush with Jessica Biel. In the end, he purposely chooses to be late, just to get the girl. It's boring and it sucks.
The Nutcracker 3d
Why would anyone want to watch this movie with their little kids in 2d, let alone in 3d? It has nightmare inducing CGI, awkward acting and I kid you not, it has rats portrayed as Nazis. They don't have swastikas, but the Nazi imagery is all over the third act of the film. It deserves it's 0% rating at Rotten Tomatoes and it is still amazing that this movie was green lit to begin with.
A Christmas story 2
I want to tell you a little secret. I don't like the first Christmas Story movie. I Hated the adult voice and I found most of it boring to be honest. However, I do get why people think that this movie. It has a lot of good memorable moments like the licking the pole, the leg lamp, etc. A Christmas story 2 isn't a sequel, it's a lazy rip-off of it's own movie. It doesn't have any new ideas to call itself a sequel and the characters were more likable in the original than this one.
A Miracle on Christmas lake
I thought this movie was joyless Period. No one was likable and the good moments were not genuine.
Dear Santa
I was browsing through channels and I came across this movie half-way. And because I did not see Dear Santa from the beginning, I was rooting for the main character Crystal when I wasn't supposed to. She lies her way into a family's life and when the girlfriend get jealous of Crystal, she comes off as the bad guy. This movie wants us to hate Jillian so badly, that they make him into a “doesn't really like children” snob. And yet She's right.
Christmas with the Cranks
So this movie is about a couple that refuse to celebrate Christmas and because of this they become pariahs in their own town. This movie would have had even more problems, if the couple didn't want to partake in the Christmas holiday because they celebrate another holiday like Kwanzaa or Hanukkah. The characters are obnoxious and unlikable and the message of this film is that if you don't celebrate Christmas and only Christmas, you are to be hated as the Nazis.
Surviving Christmas
I wish that Nostalgia Critic reviews this movie, because it is a mean-spirited crap show from beginning to end. If you watch it, you will hate Ben Affleck.
Christmas with a Capital c
This is a Christian flick, about a guy wanting to remove Christmas for Political Correctness. And while He's portrayed as a villain, the other characters don't come off as unlikable either. Especially one of the supporting characters that think he's funny, but he's an annoying, obnoxious MAN-CHILD. There is another movie similar to this movie and it's called “Last Once of Courage”. They both believe that they prosecuted by anyone that isn't Christian, but guess what in the real world, NO ONE TRYING TO TAKE CHRISTMAS AWAY FROM YOU. You can celebrate any holiday you want. The moral of “How the Grinch stole Christmas” was that even if you take away the presents, you can never take away Christmas.
Merry in-laws
Merry in-laws is a hallmark romantic comedy about a couple spending Christmas with their parents, but the twist is that the boyfriend's parents are Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claws. This movie is filled with the most annoying clichés that I hate. As much as I hate the third act break-up, this movie made me hate the over-protective parents cliché. The main conflict of this movie revolves around the girlfriend's father who is giant stick in the mud when it comes to Christmas. And when he learns that his future son-in-law's parents are the really deal. He hardly gets any comeuppance for his rude behavior. I swear I wish I could be in the movie just to give the father a piece of my mind.
Me: You are a real Grinch, you know that! You know I think that the real reason you didn't want your daughter to marry this man was that you actually HATE Christmas for some reason because you have been rude and unpleasant towards him and his family, even when they have done nothing but be nice to you. Is being nice for the sake of it count as a con in your opinion? You just can't stand anything that is related to Christmas, can you? Was your father just as uptight as you? Did he tell you to grow up and that there's no such thing as Santa Claws when you were very young? But given how strict and authoritative your upbringing was, you couldn't even pretend to be polite. Merry Christmas Jerk-face.

I'm surprised I didn't see The Christmas Tree or Rapsittie Street Kids Believe in Santa on this list. Still good choices, though.
