National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
Recommended Videos
Again, some people may want to say that perhaps this is not a Christmas movie for people who hate holidays, but I disagree. If there is ONE MOVIE that gets what a shit show Christmas is, it is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. From the relatives visiting to the setting up of Christmas lights, and to the getting the tree and decorating it to the expectations of (unrealistic) Christmas bonuses from our jobs, there is NOTHING left untouched by this film.
It gets it. It KNOWS the whole thing is a fucking train wreck that we all smile through because that is what is expected of us. And though it may have a somewhat sweet resolution, if you think about it, that resolution was a ten minute smile for three weeks of mental and physical anguish.
