Read more: Krampus (2015)Krampus (2015) is the second Christmas Horror movie involving this horned Christmas Devil that I have reviewed this season. I must admit that the old boy is starting to grow on me. Krampus is the mythological half-goat, half-human, who is the Yuletide equivalent of the floggings will continue until morale improves. This Christmas anti-Santa is…

Bad Santa 2 (2016)

Read more: Bad Santa 2 (2016)Bad Santa 2 (2016) The original Bad Santa was a hilarious gut-punch to everything traditionally Christmas, from the nauseating movie It’s a Wonderful Life to Santa’s plastic reindeer. Bad Santa 2 was just a 13 year later gut-punch to the viewer, one that no one needed. Sequels, especially much delayed sequels are always suspect, but…

Read more: Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant Killer Snowman (2000)Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant Killer Snowman (2000) The original Jack Frost was a near masterpiece of camp watchability. I guess that it was inevitable that a sequel had to be made. In Jack Frost 2 we again had the star of the show, Sam, the stupid chief. I did the original review…

Since I’ve already seen my first Black Friday ad I gave myself the go-ahead to start on this year’s Christmas Reviews. This year will be more challenging than ever as…

The Santa Clause (1994)

Read more: The Santa Clause (1994)Throughout my life, and in the last few years reviewing movies at Ruthless, there have been few things that have actually terrified me. After watching The Santa Clause (1994), I noticed that there are actually two sequels to this movie. That is terrifying. I would say that I have no words, but actually I do,…

Jack Frost (1997)

Author:
Read more: Jack Frost (1997)Jack Frost (1997) is a Christmas horror movie that has the distinction of having the worst fake snow in the history of cinematography. Unfortunately, that is the only normal distinction that this “movie” has, and I use the word “movie” in a theoretical sense only. Yes, this is a cult classic and for sheer campiness,…

Read more: Santa With Muscles (1996)Bad, bad, bad, BAD. With the possible exception of Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny, Santa With Muscles (1996) is not only the worst Christmas movie ever made, but it is one of the worst that could be made…ever. Weighing in at a whopping 2.4 at IMDB and ranked in the bottom 100 movies of…

It’s Christmas, Carol! (2012)

Author:
Read more: It’s Christmas, Carol! (2012)It’s Christmas, Carol! (2012) is yet another made for TV rendition of the Dickens classic. I had just about given up on Hallmark as some (most) of their Christmas programming is absolutely dreadful. I’d rather go visit the local church and attend their services than watch most of the family and God crap on that…

Pee-Wee’s Big Holiday (2016)

Author:
Read more: Pee-Wee’s Big Holiday (2016)Pee-Wee’s Big Holiday (2016) is another one of those made for Netflix gems that must not be missed. This is not even a Christmas movie, in spite of the title. But, who cares, it’s Pee-Wee Herman! Homoeroticism: This is of course the only thing that matters in this review. I’m not going to invest a…
