We all know the big ones… what’s a less famous one worth watching?

    three of my favourite go to Christmas movies:

    Brazil
    Blast of Silence
    Batman Returns (all B’s, weird)

    Brazil you wouldn’t think is a christmas movie but it is and it’s easily my favourite Terry Gilliam movies.

    Blast of Silence is an old movie but it’s a unique one about a lonely hitman whose returned to New York City for christmas and how the city itself as kinda left him behind.

    Batman Returns IS a christmas movie and easily my favourite Batman flick. watch it every year.

      Batman Returns isn’t just a Christmas movie, it’s a Batman spin on A Christmas Carol. Penguin represents Bruce’s past, Catwoman his present, and Schreck his future.

        interesting take. I haven’t watched this movie in probably decades…but this will make me rewatch it. Thanks!
