By Geno McGahee I continue my spree of Xmas movie reviews with the 2014 movie “A MERRY FRIGGIN’ CHRISTMAS” starring the late Robin Williams. It’s so sad that we no longer have him around, but it was great to see him in this film that I had never heard of. […]
Holiday & Xmas Movies
Pete’s Christmas (2013) – Bruce Dern Groundhog Day Hallmark Channel XMAS MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The Christmas movie review spree continues with the 2013 Hallmark Channel TV movie “PETE’S CHRISTMAS,” and it had an interesting premise: “A put-upon teen finds himself reliving the same miserable Christmas day over and over again.” Yes, it’s like GROUNDHOG DAY and everyone and their uncle points […]
The Town Christmas Forgot (2010) – Lauren Holly Hallmark Xmas Movie Review
By Geno McGahee My spree of Xmas movie reviews continues with the 2010 Hallmark holiday movie “THE TOWN CHRISTMAS FORGOT.” Hallmark movies can be counted on to put across the rediscovery of Christmas and this film is no exception. The Benson family is en route to a big Christmas celebration […]
Gremlins (1984) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee It is time to continue my Xmas movie spree. It is that time of the year. An Xmas movie that proved to be the starter movie for many horror fans was the 1984 kid-friendly Steven Spielberg monster movie “GREMLINS.” Love him or hate him, you can […]
How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) – Jim Carrey Xmas Dr. Seuss MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I like Christmas movies, for the most part. They are happy themes and usually leave you feeling good…unless they’re one of those religious-preachy sorts of flicks. Religion has no business in a Christmas movie and no, I’m not willing to debate that. In 2000, after years of […]
Christmas Evil (1980) – Xmas HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Before the controversial killer Santa movie “SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT,” there was another killer Santa four years earlier in CHRISTMAS EVIL. Although it has slasher elements, it is not a slasher film, which is why this film didn’t get the hype that the other one did. What […]
Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker (1991) – Christmas Horror Movie Review
By Geno McGahee In 1984, all of the fat housewives united to protest the release of the killer Santa movie “SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT.” These idiots, along with Siskel and Ebert did what they could to get the movie pulled and they did just that. You can still see Siskel […]
Jingle all the Way 2 (2014) – Larry the Cable Guy CHRISTMAS MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Is it crazy that Larry the Cable Guy is in a sequel to an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie? Yes. Is it crazy that I rented it for 6 dollars off of cable? Yes. Do you know what the craziest part of this is? I actually really enjoyed JINGLE […]
Jingle All the Way (1996) – Arnold Schwarzenegger Christmas MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee We are getting close to Xmas and I am truly in the spirit of the holiday. So much so that I have been watching holiday movie after holiday movie. Considering my love of Xmas movies and my love of Arnold Schwarzenegger, re-watching and reviewing the 1996 film […]
BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974) – Xmas Horror Movie Review
By Geno McGahee This has to be one of the greatest horror films of all time…a slasher that actually frightens you. Bob Clark directs this masterpiece, and it should be noted that he also directed and co-wrote another classic from 1972: “Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things.” In Black Christmas, […]
Christmas with the Kranks (2004) – Tim Allen, Jamie Lee Curtis XMAS MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I was never a fan of Tim Allen’s standup comedy routine or his TV show, but he has found magic in his films. He is legitimately funny and it was never more on display than it was in WILD HOGS. I have found enjoyment in most of […]
The Mistle-Tones (2012) – Made for TV Christmas Movie Review
By Geno McGahee Every Xmas season, I watch a lot of holiday movies. This year, I have stumbled across the made for TV film THE MISTLE-TONES, which is not much like SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT, but it’s still an Xmas movie. So, I gave it a shot. It was a […]
