It's time for GUESS THAT CHRISTMAS MOVIE! I'll provide bad movie descriptions and you have to tell me which movie it is. For each one you get right, you'll get 200 points. Message your answers to me once you think you've guessed them all, along with the ID for the horse or dog you want the points on! You have until 11:59 PM on 12/13 to send me your answers.

 

I'll post the answer key in the forums after the deadline. Make sure you message me your answers and don't post them here, don't want to spoil the fun for others ;).

 

GO GO GO GO!

 

1. Recently abandoned sociopath assaults two petty criminals, leaving them nearly dead. Successfully convinces law enforcement he did nothing wrong.

 

2. Trash hoarder returns stolen goods because of a recent heart problem caused by impressive gift wrapping as a snowflake plummets towards earth.

 

3. Ex-SNL cast member runs away to the desert in an attempt to escape the family business.

 

4. Hitchhiker with permanent Santa suit lies his way across the country with a car of Tom Jones enthusiasts, a felonious elf, and an almost-divorced sheriff to inherit something his father loves more than him.

 

5. Man fails to read legal document and consequently gets enslaved by elves, who give him one last year to live his life normally, during which time he loses all credibility, his physique, and custody of his son. But it's all worth it in the end when he convinces a jaded psychiatrist to believe in Santa.

 

6. A child's snowman is possessed by the ghost of his father.

 

7. Crisis helps man realize that all of his family, friends, and hometown would cease to function properly if he had never graced the world with his existence.

 

8. Sugar-crazed 6-foot-tall Santa-fanboy is set loose on New York City.

 

9. Child nearly loses his eyesight due to poor parenting because his father is obsessed with a sweepstakes prize and his mother is being driven insane by their unwieldy younger child.

 

10. In this Op-Ed about how everyone's family is dysfunctional, unstable, and dangerous around the holidays, an absolute assclown misinterprets frustrated head of house and abducts his employer causing the couple next door to break up, SWAT team hijinks, and ultimately (somehow?) secures the money to put in a pool.

 

11. A month before Christmas, dozens of Londoners complain about their lives, while one man betrays his best friend, only to realize that love and Christmas are -GASP- good as they all end up in the same airport over the holidays.

 

12. A couple who just wants to go on the vacation they planned is manipulated into celebrating Christmas by their neighbors and the local newspaper. They must throw together a slapdash party and scour the city to find the very last canned ham that is their adult daughter's favorite food.

 

13. A train conductor kidnaps children and transports them to a village in the Arctic, then proceeds to convince them to be lifelong believers in a fairytale.

 

14. Nihilistic, unredeemable holiday personnel tricks kids in order to rob a mall.

 

15. Last minute Christmas gift found in a shady Chinatown shop with suspiciously long list of things not to do results in child immediately and unsurprisingly doing all of the things on the list, ending in numerous atrocities unbecoming of a children's Christmas film.

 

16. Judge decides that the United States Postal Service is an infallible organization that is incapable of delivering letters to the wrong person, subsequently releases potentially unstable department store Santa.

 

17. Escaped repeat offender defrauds hotel, destroys a home under renovation, and makes friends with a bird enthusiast.

 

18. Aggressively bullied woodland creature is mocked mercilessly by Santa until his mutation becomes functionally useful to save Christmas.

 

19. Estranged husband spends entire movie avoiding Alan Rickman by crawling through an air duct and risking his life in an elevator shaft.

 

20. Three mischievous children abduct the ruler of another world after misinterpreting the words of a man who wants to broaden his horizons.
