90s Christmas Movies That You Forgot You Love

Because nothing warms the heart like nostalgia. Remember being a kid at Christmas? Everything seemed so magical and perfect. As you grow older, the holidays tend to become a little less miraculous and a little more stressful. You may not be able to turn back time, but you can take a walk down memory lane and re-capture a bit of that childhood wonder. So cozy up on the couch and settle in for a Christmas movie marathon straight out of the 90s.

9. Jack Frost

A man brought back to life as a talking snowman to guide his adolescent son through the turbulent fall-out of his death? Sure, why not! The 90s were so wonderfully weird. [embed width="560" height="315"]https://www.youtube.com/embed/orPZ0BMUI7k[/embed]  

8. A Mom for Christmas

Yet another comedy built on the morbid foundation of a deceased parent. But who could not love Olivia Newton John as a mannequin brought to life? [embed width="560" height="315"]https://www.youtube.com/embed/i6aWKxkSons[/embed]  

7. Santa with Muscles

2 words: Hulk Hogan. [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/4XiAYebVwQw[/embed]  

6. All I Want for Christmas

A young Thora Birch wants the same thing every millennial child did - for their divorced parents to reunite just in time for the holidays. Think The Parent Trap, but with more mistletoe! [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/rjRILzo_Nu0[/embed]  

5. Borrowed Hearts

Made for TV? More like made for you! When a rent-a-family scheme goes predictably wrong, Roma Downey does what she does best --tugs at our heartstrings. Added bonus: movie makeover montage! [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/0wvS4XEgWi8[/embed]  

4. To Grandmother’s House We Go

America’s favorite twins in a holiday caper with double the cheesy 90s vibes. Alternate title: The Olsen Twins Were WAY Cuter Than You as Children. [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/8Na0hOYk5hM[/embed]  

3. I’ll Be Home for Christmas

Jessica Biel & J.T.T. in their prime. Sure, they’re an oddly-mismatched couple in terms of height, but 12 year-old you will still say “Awwwww!” [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/_78cM5PZtYE[/embed]  

2. The Santa Clause

Everyone’s favorite 90s Dad, Tim Allen, is magically transformed into the jolliest father figure of them all - Father Christmas. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll want hot cocoa. [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/t067u2Jnks0[/embed]  

1. Jingle all the Way

The Governator helps us all learn a very important lesson: holiday shopping was much more dangerous before Amazon. [embed width="560" height="315"]https://youtu.be/JuPc9QJcGJs[/embed]
