(WARNING: Animated holiday merriment below.)
Ah, Christmas. It’s a relaxing time to spend with family and the last hurdle before you let your hair down on New Year’s Eve.
The industry, er, holiday known as Christmas dominates not only the last two months of each year, but has also spawned its own genre of film.
