As much as I enjoyed Violent Night, there's not a lot to say about it. It's about Santa Clause deciding to give up on Christmas until he finds a family being held hostage by mercenaries, and his big warm heart urges him to help free them. Santa then proceeds to rip out eye balls, set... Continue Reading →
The Big Lebowski is one of those films you can watch more than once and enjoy it more on each subsequent rewatch.

This normally isn't the type of film that would interest me, but my surprise enticement with the Crown on Netflix urged me to give this film a go too. It follows Princess Diana on the Christmas weekend she decided to end things between herself and her husband, Prince Charles. The best part about this film... Continue Reading →
