It’s that time of year when it’s hard to conceive of a thought more complex than what gifts I get to open Christmas morning or “jingle bells, batman smells, Robin laid an egg.” The holidays can be an exhausting time of year whether your schedule is packed with back-to-back end-of-year social engagements or you’re making the bold choice to spend Christmas alone. That’s where binging as many Christmas movies as your last two brain cells can handle comes in. Watching a seasonal flick, let alone one cheesier than the cranberry brie you brought to the office holiday party, is the perfect antidote to becoming a Scrooge. I’m talking about storylines so absurd and lines so silly you have to permit yourself several festive cocktails to accompany the experience. Looking for a list of the best bad Christmas movies from Hallmark to Netflix? Look no further!
I’m gonna keep it real with you: Hot Frosty could be hotter. But the charming small-town flick (with just a dash of copaganda) is perfect for cuddling after a long night.
This movie about revisiting Christmas past in New York isn’t simply “bad,” it’s borderline unhinged in the best way possible, which is why you need to stream ASAP.
Vanessa Hudgens, thespian that she is, plays not one, not two, but three different international girl boss relatives who must save the mythical kingdom (that is not Genovea) time and time again.
Melissa Joan Hart’s ABC Family (yep, I’m old) gem about kidnapping Mario Lopez is a kooky blizzard storm I just never get sick of. It’s also worth noting the cast was actually sick with flu while filming, which only makes their shenanigans nuttier.
Romcom icon Dermot Mulroney plays a widower who ambushes his daughter with a new relationship that happens to be with her ex-best friend. Sweet, right?
Been curious what Freddie Prinze Jr. is up to? Playing the leading man in a movie about a pop star who needs a local musician’s help to fix her image, apparently.
MARISSA is a trending news writer at Betches. She's more than just another pop-culture-addicted-east-coaster-turned-LA-transplant...she's also an upcoming television writer and aspiring Real Housewife (whichever comes first). Live, laugh, balegdah.
