I know the movie is not Xmassey and all bu there is the anecdote the character Cherish tells in Cecil B. Demented that is darkly comical and very related to Xmas.

I think a lot of people know Die Hard is a Christmas movie, so it’s less obvious. I too watch Die Hard on christmas, as well as Love Actually.

Prometheus
(The pilot sets up a Christmas tree saying it is Christmas day)

Either Die Hard or Die Hard 2 my bro and I watch every year. I did break tradition last year by watching Love Actually.

I prefer a classic: The Thin Man. A hilarious murder mystery that everyone forgets is set during Christmas.

Almost forgot another of my Christmas movies is Grumpy Old Men which, for myself at least, was as much of a Christmas tradition as watching Albert Finney’s version of Scrooge.

I have to agree with MGF. Gremlins is just one of those great unobvious but only slightly under Die Hard unobvious Christmas movies. Also, I am one of the few people I know that remember when The Snowman originally aired (with David Bowie narrating) yet until recently, very few people I knew had seen it and I always watch it around this time of year.
