2015’s Carol vs 2007’s Extras: Extra Special Series Finale! Ok, so Extras is a TV show, but it’s called DVD Deathmatch (not film Deathmatch - that’s not alliterative at all!) plus it’s the length of a film. It’s the holidays, calm down.
Ep 64. - The NightMare Before Kinsmas
2004’s Kinsey vs 1993’s The Nightmare Before Christmas - We PROMISE that there is a Christmas scene in Kinsey and we didn’t just want to talk about the sex movie… PLUS we weigh in on the mutually established as v.important debate - is Nightmare actually a Christmas movie?
