Holiday movies are almost a genre of their own. They are films that dont even have to depict a traditional celebration in order to be Christmas or Thanksgiving movies. They just have to have that beautiful holiday cheer. In fact, even horror has found a place in the niche of holiday movies, proving that water and oil can be mixed, if just done with enough creativity and an interesting story. This often expands to crime movies and mystery thrillers that carry the holiday spirit and confirm that not everything during the holidays is jolly.
