Favorite Scary Christmastime Programs

"The Polar Express" was knocked down by "The Incredibles," which is a bummer, because I hear it's very scary and creepy, and I would like to see it. It would be nice if they had released it a week or two AFTER "Incredibles" opened. Pixar is not a company to be messed with!...

But onto the substance of the topic--as we know, it is wintertime, because our little toes are freezing off and the floor feels like some kinda ice cube. It is at this time of the year that many pull their favorite ratty old VHS tapes off the shelf for another go-round. A nice cup of hot tea and a slice of pie make this holiday tradition complete. Many Christmas TV specials, expecially those produced by Rankin Bass, have creepy elements like monsters. This seems to tie into the tradition of telling ghost stories around the fire at Christmastime. We all like a good creep, especially when we feel that winter chill. What are YOUR favorite creepy holiday shows?

But regardless, I always loved my man, The Grinch! That was/is my favorite holiday show.

That sounds like a recommendation to me!

Well, I'm not too fond of xmas myself...but I actually looove CGI, etc.

But is it like a sappy family movie? I mean, I'm sure I could appreciate it. But I'm just trying to get a feel for what it's like.
