Time to lug this thread up from the Tiki Central basement, dust it off, and check all the lights.

But first, please join me in our annual reading of The True Meaning of This Thread. Our special guest reader this year was to be actor Boris Karloff but he apparently had some scheduling difficulties. Here's a nice publicity photo of Mr. Karloff similar to one I'm sure he would have sent us along with a personal message he probably would have written...

It was such an honor to be asked to read The True Meaning of This Thread particularly as I am a great admirer of Tiki Central. I also think Woofmutt is, as you kids say, "awesome." Unfortunately I now live in Heaven and was unable to participate in this wonderful tradition as I am busy helping Santa Claus with his naughty and nice list. Yours, Boris

What a swell guy, huh?

And now, without further ado...

*"The True Meaning of This Thread"

The true meaning of this thread is Overlooked and possibly unknown holiday movies which are worth watching.

Worth watching means:

Movies and cartoons and TV specials which are well made and they make you feel all warm and tingly inside like you drank a big mug of magic cocoa.

OR

Movies and cartoons and TV specials which are so terrible you can't pull your eyes away and your dreams are filled with visions of wooden angels and creepy paper mache Santas.

If you make a recommendation please add some reason as to why it's worth seeing. Just dropping a movie name is sort of useless. We're all capable of using Google to find obscure stuff we don't know anything about. What will make this thread most useful is if you add personal comments.

Again, the focus is on the overlooked and obscure and worth watching. The list at the top of the thread will be updated as movies are suggested.*

Happy (insert your preferred holiday here) everybody!!!
