Whether you favour the classics, like White Christmas, or love a good romantic comedy like Love, Actually, popping in a DVD and putting your feet up to watch it is the ultimate comfort.

Grab your drink and take a look at FIVE OF THE BEST.

Home Alone (1990)

“You guys give up — or are you thirsty for more?” Those are the immortal words of Kevin McCallister, the precocious little boy who’s abandoned on his Christmas vacation by his family in 1990’s Home Alone. Rather than freak out, Kevin decides to have the best Christmas of his life… even though two inept robbers (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) try to get in the way. Cue the hijinks (and injuries)! Try as he might, Macaulay Culkin will never not be known for his character in that flick, and rightly so. The movie has become a staple for most families to watch around the holidays.

A Christmas Story (1983)

Same can be said of Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) from A Christmas Story or Jack Skellington from A Nightmare Before Christmas. Who could forget the shockingly heartwarming tale of a stop-motion skeleton, voiced by the lead singer of Oingo Boingo trying to find the meaning of Christmas with the help of his stitched-together girlfriend? It’s an extremely catchy musical, no less, and Danny Elfman and Schitt’s Creek star Cathrine O’Hara (also Kevin’s mom in Home Alone!) are perfection.

How the Grinch Stole

Christmas (2000)

The Jim Carrey version of The Grinch from 2000 has become the go-to favourite of the Dr. Seuss adaptations, mainly due to the comedian’s manic portrayal of the famed monster. Plus, you get to see a baby Taylor Momsen playing adorable Cindy Lou Who!

A Charlie Brown

Christmas (1965)

No holiday would be the same without Charlie Brown! After it premiered in 1965 on CBS, the classic holiday animation follows Charlie and his friends, Linus, Lucy, Sally, Pig Pen, Violet, Patty, Snoopy and more embark on another simple yet sweet holiday adventure — all while learning the importance of the Christmas holiday.

Elf (2003)

Who wouldn’t laugh along with this Will Ferrell-led comedy? As he travels all the way to New York City from the North Pole, Buddy the elf hilariously gets reacquainted with his long-lost father, Walter, who is an uptight worker at a children’s book publisher. As Buddy tries to inject all the Christmas spirit he can into everybody’s lives, he also learns how to live in the real world. – Hollywood Life
