Description

Happy holidays from Cory and Isaac! The duo discusses the advent of the subversive Christmas movie, diving into non-traditional holiday gems from Jingle All the Way to Black Christmas, Bad Santa to Batman Returns. How do these films manage to register as Christmas movies despite their demented sensibilities? What's up with the dearth of Hanukkah slashers? And why the hell hasn't Isaac seen Die Hard 3?
