The Polar Express is creepy, but I can’t stop rewatching it. đ
Are these “terrible” Christmas movies actually good? Let’s find out…
1. The Princess Switch (2018): “Honest to god, The Princess Switch is so predictable. There’s nothing about it that I couldn’t figure out, but that didn’t stop me from watching it for a week straight. It’s so cute!”

2. The Polar Express (2004): “Everyone says it’s really creepy and all with the animation, but I saw it as a 10-year-old and absolutely loved it! Have watched it every year since!”

4. Every Hallmark Christmas Movie: “Every single Hallmark Christmas movie. They’re all so predictable, but they end happily, and I love them.”
The Hallmark Channel
5. Christmas With the Kranks (2004): “Christmas With the Kranks is really corny and overall kind of embarrassing, but I still find myself wanting to watch it every year.”

6. A Christmas Horror Story (2015): “It’s so bad that it’s SO good. Krampus, zombie elves, etc. You are welcome.”

7. The Christmas Prince (2017): “The Christmas Prince!!! It’s the cheesiest movie ever, but it’s so good! I don’t know what makes it so intriguing, but this idea of showing up and falling in love with royalty is so interesting.”
Netflix
8. A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding: “I thought the first one was bad, but this was on another level. At one point, the main character uses a bow and arrow to threaten someone, who is then imprisoned in the palace dungeons â and it’s treated like just a regular day in Aldovia. It’s a terrible/amazing movie.”

9. A Princess for Christmas (2011): “It was the original Christmas Prince and deserves so much more appreciation than it gets. Katie McGrath is positively precious in it, and you could watch it just for her alone, but the other storylines involved are just as sweet.”

10. The Mistle-Tones (2012): “The Mistle-Tones is so cheesy, but I canât help it.”

11. A Very Brady Christmas (1988): “This is the corniest movie, but I’ve watched it every year since I first saw it on TV.”

12. Deck the Halls (2006): “Amazingly bad, but so good.”

13. A Christmas Wedding Date (2012): “It’s about a woman who returns to her hometown for a friend’s wedding on Christmas Eve, and she ends up having to relive the same day over and over. Cheesy and not great acting, but it’s one of my favorites!”

14. Snowglobe (2007): “I watch it multiple times during the Christmas season. Itâs so clichĂŠ, but so entertaining.”
ABC Family
15. A Mom for Christmas (1990): “A Mom for Christmas with Olivia Newton-John is an underrated classic of absolute cheesy awfulness. It’s basically ‘Mannequin Does Christmas.'”

16. All I Want for Christmas (1991): “Totally predictable but so good. Somehow, Lauren Bacall and Kevin Nealon are also in it? I have to watch this movie every year.”
Paramount / Courtesy Everett Collection
17. And finally, Dates of Christmas (2011): “It’s so cute, and it makes me so happy. I have to watch it at least a couple of times every year!”
