- Black Christmas (1974)
"In one of the first ever slashers, a sorority house is terrorized by a yuletide killer in “A Christmas Story” director Bob Clark’s first take on the holiday. Mixing bloody violence with suspense and tension, “Black Christmas” firmly ratcheted up whodunits of the past. "
- Happiest Season (2020)
"The first LGBTQ Christmas film to come from a major studio, Clea DuVall’s “Happiest Season” became an instant classic when it released in 2020. The film stars Kristen Stewart and Mackenzie Davis as Abby and Harper, a couple who head to Harper’s family home for the holidays. The only problem? Harper actually hasn’t come out to her parents yet, and asks Abby to pretend to be her straight roommate for the trip."
- Last Holiday (2006)
"Queen Latifah and LL Cool J are in tune with each other as flirtatious department store co-workers in this rom-com about a woman diagnosed with a rare brain disease. When Latifah learns of her terminal diagnosis, she decides to vacation at a lavish resort, playing roulette and visiting the spa while touching the lives of the people around her at the hotel."
- Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)
"A timeless classic, the 1964 stop-motion “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” reveals the story behind the famous Christmas tune. Rudolph is a charmingly awkward teen who tries to cover up his red nose with mud, has a crush on a doe named Clarice and goes on an adventure with an elf named Hermey to the Island of Misfit Toys."
- While You Were Sleeping (1995)
"This isn’t a traditional Christmas movie, but when Sandra Bullock’s Lucy joins her crush’s (Peter Gallagher) family for the holiday season, magic happens with his brother (Bill Pullman). While the man who she thought was The One is in a coma and his entire family believes they’re engaged, she falls in love with his brother - and brings a whole new meaning to family being much more than blood relatives.
