Cracks_InTheWallsWhat are your favourite halloween+christmas movies?
Brave Little Hitachi WandAs a kid I had pretty loose video rental permissions. I frequently rented Jack Frost (1997). It was trash and I was too young to be watching it, but it ticks the boxes.
bacon_pdpTo be fair, your parents probably mistook it for Jack Frost (1998) which is PG and actually a kids movie
Yeah no, they just didn’t care. Charitable of you though.
Halloween:
It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.
Christmas:
A Charlie Brown Christmas
Runner up is the George C. Scott A Christmas Carol movie.
I don’t really know many specific Halloween movies. If we take this loosely as horror movie, then Sinister.
Christmas: Muppets Christmas Carol, hands down. So much so that my present for my family this year is to go see an orchestra play along live while the movie is shown on a big screen. Very exciting
The Muppet Christmas Carol is the best film version of A Christmas Carol hands down.
All the 60’s stop motion stuff: Rudolph, Frosty, etc. (The Charlie Brown stuff was mentioned).
Die Hard. I’ll die on the hill of this being a Christmas movie.

🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 Big Trouble in Little China doesn’t even take place during Christmas or Halloween… How does it make the cut? Die Hard at least is during Christmas.
It’s got the spook factor go Halloween. At least that’s what I’m going with.
Apeman42If you’re asking specifically for movies that work on both holidays, gotta give it up for Gremlins. Set at Christmas, but a nice light creature feature great for Halloween too.
This is what I was thinking, but I’m digging the lists for both holidays rolling in too.
Excellent choice! Didn’t even consider that one.
Plus the best goddamn theme song ever.
Scott 🇨🇦🏴☠️Yippee-ki-yay, MF.
Mister Falcon
Die Hard
Lol I know. Years ago when TBS aired the movie, they changed the phrase to “Yippee Ki-Yay Mister Falcon.”
I still think is hilariously dumb.
LOL, that is hilarious.

AlmaccaBad Santa. It’s hilarious, and actually has a pretty heart-warming ending after all the depravity.
the_grass_trainerI thought “Violent Night” was a pretty fun movie
Oh, I just remembered Santa’s Slay, starring wrestler Bill Goldberg as Santa, Son of Satan.
Awful, stupid, and just sort of ends. Very fun watch, especially with your inebriant of choice.
dkppunkI don’t really watch a Halloween movie every year, but something like The Ghostbusters would be a good one for me. They are some of my favorite movies anyway.
At Christmas time, I really enjoy watching Just Friends with Amy Smart and Ryan Reynolds. It’s cute, it’s funny, and it has a holiday theme.
I only know of exactly one Halloween+Christmas movie.
The Nightmare Before Christmas.
jordanlundHey, hey, hey… Don’t skip Thanksgiving!
Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987) Official Trailer 1 - Steve Martin Movie
I recently watched The Mean One, a horror movie where the Grinch brutally murders people who celebrate Christmas. The story was actually pretty good for a horror movie
Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale
one of the **Friday **movies (at least 1 was a Christmas movie) though I’m not sure which. I liked them all somewhat at least.
Friday After Next was the one with the Santa burgler
The first Addams Family movie starts with a Christmas scene and so is set during the Christmas season, but clearly has Halloween vibes throughout. The sequel, Addams Family Values, gets even weirder in this kind of holiday mashup vibe. The kids get sent off to a summer camp, where they are doing a thanksgiving play for some reason. So it’s Halloween vibes throughout, with turkeys and pilgrims, but it takes place during the summer.
Anna and the Apocalypse is pulling holiday double-duty. It’s a zombie survival musical set in the days before a school’s Christmas break. Insanely ambitious genre-bash, especially for the shoestring budget it was produced on, but a very fun way to kill 90 minutes.
Scrooged is undeniably more a Christmas movie than a Halloween movie, but it’s got some great spooky vibes. Especially with their portrayal of the Ghost of Christmas Future.
Silent Night Deadly Night isn’t my favorite but without that series we wouldn’t have this.
