Shot at 60 part VIII: Christmas

Merry Christmas, folks. As it’s Christmas, I feel the need to do a Shot at 60 on Christmas movies. For your information:  As only a couple of Christmas movies were released theatrically in the 1970s, I’ve used three 1980s and three 1990s Christmas movies instead of usually having two. Enjoy!
