It's Disney, cheesy, funny, touching and animated. What more could you want? It's one of my favourites." – beyourowndensity Streaming on: Netflix USA 2 Carol 2015 Number 9 Films "I haven't seen many, if any, Christmas movies with lesbians so it's pretty nice that this one exists. It's got really good cinematography and also Cate Blanchett." – laceyc4d9f3ba66 Streaming on: Google Play 3 The Family Stone 2005 Fox 2000 Pictures "The Family Stone is one of my absolute favourite Christmas films! It’s got such a good cast and it perfectly demonstrates the pressures of a grown up family getting together for Christmas, in the most hilarious yet heartwarming way." – melissap45e913388 Streaming on: Amazon 4 Deck the Halls 2006 Regency Enterprises "Its a bit cheesy but it stars Danny DeVito. It's now a must watch at Christmas for me." – louiseh486d9825b Streaming on: Netflix 5 All I Want for Christmas 1991 Paramount Pictures "Still one of my favourite all time movies, let alone Christmas movie!" – orangetadders Streaming on: Google Play 6 Santa s Slay 2005 Media 8 Entertainment "Santa's Slay is a hilarious, It's so bad, it's good. It's a horror comedy in which Santa is actually the spawn of Satan, brutally murdering everyone in sight. It's full to the brim with cheesy puns, bad acting, and over-the-top violence, and I never grow tired of watching it year after year." – ValidatedDoomsayer Streaming on: Amazon 7 The Greatest Store in the World 1999 BBC "Every year I watch the 1999 BBC TV film The Greatest Store in the World. It's got Ricky Tomlinson, Brian Blessed, Sean Hughes and Peter Capaldi. It's about a poor single parent family who live in a harrods like store over Christmas. It's just lovely." – joannaw4d7a917c5 Streaming on: YouTube 8 Arthur Christmas 2011 Aardman Animations "Arthur Christmas is so underrated. I think it is heartwarming and lovely. I make sure it’s on every year as I am decorating the Christmas Tree." – dannim4a6338bbd Streaming on: Netflix 9 A Cinderella Christmas 2015 MarVista Entertainment "A Cinderella Christmas is one of my new festive favourites. I love the retelling of a classic fairytale for Christmas." – l419313cb2 Streaming on: Amazon 10 The Night Before 2015 Columbia Pictures "The Night Before is hilarious, I watch it every Christmas with my family. It's definitely not a children's movie, but if you want to laugh your butt off with some friends while drinking some spiked eggnog, this is the movie for you. Nothing beats Seth Rogen." – deliad4bfc2e6da Streaming on: YouTube 11 A Christmas Kiss 2011 Max Pix "I watch it all the time on Netflix." – CanaLiz Streaming on: Netflix 12 The Mistle-Tones 2013 Fred Hayes / ABC FAMILY "The music, the romance, Tia Mowry, what's not to like!" – brafeeat Streaming on: iTunes 13 Love at the Christmas Table 2012 Asylum, The "Cheesy Christmas romance at its best." – briannak4edaf06d1 Streaming on: Google Play 14 The Spirit of Christmas 2015 Max Pix "The Spirit of Christmas is one I have to watch every year." – Brianna Brown Streaming on: Netflix 15 The Preacher s Wife 1996 Mundy Lane Entertainment "The Preacher's Wife with Whitney Houston and Denzel Washington. I don't know if it's underrated but not many people I've spoken to about it have heard of it. Its got the perfect mix of sweet and sass, humour and heartbreak for a Christmas film." – Chrissy Allen, Facebook Streaming on: Google Play 16 White Christmas 1954 Paramount Pictures "It's an oldie but a goodie. Bing Crosby singing the title tune, George Clooney's aunt as his love interest and Vera Ellen's amazing dancing. I have watched it every year since I was a little girl and never get bored of it. Perfect for watching on a lazy Christmas afternoon post-turkey." – Laura Kwong, Facebook Streaming on: Netflix 17 Jingle All The Way 1996 1492 Pictures "Arnold Schwarzenegger is trying to get his son the most in-demand toy of the year, on Christmas eve. Relatable for any parent." – Beverley Carry, Facebook Streaming on: YouTube Want to be featured in similar BuzzFeed posts Make sure to follow the BuzzFeed Community on Facebook and Twitter Share This ArticleFacebook PinterestTwitterMailLink TV and MoviesGet all the best moments in pop culture & entertainment delivered to your inbox.This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.
