Terror in Albion

     T'was the week before RotP's year end holiday special and all through the Neon Purple Trailer not a creature was stirring... except us and designated hitter Anna. And loud they were, with frivolity and stuff and junk and I am ashamed I couldn't keep that thing going.
     First up, a trip to the past based on a beloved UK TV series that is based on a book series which probably isn't nearly as beloved or the author/rights holder wouldn't have let them make this. It is the early days of the reign of Nero and Rome is having a minor headache from a very troublesome Celt and her army. Too bad we won't focus on that, except for some painful musical numbers. No, instead we were shown a connected story about boy Roman meets girl Celtic Chieftain's Daughter and their disgusting and drawn out mating ritual. I made that sound better than it is, sorry about Horrible Histories: The Movie- Rotten Romans.
     Then in the only actual exercise of holiday cheer we take a gander at an early slasher when they occasionally did more than just murder buxom teens near lakes. Back to the days when there could be a little room for more going on than Famous in the Future people getting lost on canoes or arrows through the throat. Back to the days when someone said "I want to make a movie about a man's descent into Santa Psychosis". Christmas Evil might just be the yule log we all need in these dismal days. It might not.
     All that and Dave spoils three movies with the same title, Anna hides behind a small voice so no one notices her bullying, Kevin channels us from the other side, Tyler's heart grows three sizes larger and we all take him to the hospital because that is a bad thing. Join us, won't you?
