THE NEW HOME OF SCIENCE FICTION ON YOUR DIGITAL CABLE LINEUP
5. Jack Frost (1996): Yes, the Michael Keaton movie, “Jack Frost,” that was released two years later is horrible, but this “Jack Frost” is about a serial killer who becomes a snow man and sets out for revenge against the sheriff who caught him. The “Mutant Killer Snowman” even came back for a sequel.
4. Santa Claus (1959): Merlin and Santa versus the Devil in this classic piece of Mexican Cinema.
3. Gremlins (1984): Billy Peltzer breaks the rules and has to stop a horde of gremlins from destroying his town, aided by his pet Mogwai, Corey Feldman and Phoebe Cates.
2. Child’s Play (1988): A serial killer transfers his soul into the hottest-selling doll at Christmas, which is ultimately given as a present to a six-year-old boy. The moral of the story is that kids should be less materialistic.
1. A Christmas Carol (1951): Sure it’s a Christmas classic, but that doesn’t change the fact that Ebenezer Scrooge is haunted by ghosts the whole time. Even the Disney version actually gave me nightmares as a kid.
