Random blu-ray from my #Christmas collection - The Lodge. Thoughts on this one? I really like it, but it's definitely one of the bleakest festive films

These two books are only 99c. You can’t get better value than that.
Hedgehogs - a lone hedgehog must team up with his natural predators to survive the zombie hedgehogs.
Hanging On - a little girl gets a ghostly telephone call at Christmas.

A couple of Christmas-themed charity shop finds from the weekend. Really happy with both. Can't wait to read the Christmas Carol graphic novel!

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (2024) - I wanted a cheesy, cosy Christmas movie that wasn't a rom com and this worked out perfectly. The cast are good, lovely feel good story and full of Christmas

I stopped making these custom dolls as they're SO labour intensive to earn even minimum wage I'd have to charge more than anyone would pay. But I did this as a favour for a returning customer and they let me down. I don't have a job, I rely on creative stuff for the tiny income I get. So, yeah 🙃
I have a pair of handmade plushies available - original Star Trek Spock and Kirk.
These were commissioned in March and the customer has since ghosted me, so I'm finally trying to sell them on. I guess my fault for trusting people to pay after production.

Nativity (2009) - Deserves to be more well known than it is. One of the very best Christmas movies. All the cast are fantastic, especially Martin Freeman & Marc Wootton. It's both very funny and emotional 5/5

Latest Christmas movie is Mercy Christmas. This is a bit of hidden Christmas horror gem. Cannibal family Christmas which is fun, action-packed and gory. It's silly and the cast go all out! Ignore the iffy title and various artwork.

"The Grot in the Grotto" (short film) 2023 - Really cool mockumentary-style short that I don't want to give too much away from. Well worth a watch though.
Xmas factor: Lots of Santa's, some nice touches like candy cane nail varnish, eggnog injections.

Super cheesy pop punk cover from the film of the same name. And if you haven't seen Christmas Shoes, it's the ultimate Christmas cheesefest!

Holiday Fear (short film) 2025
A final act of a slasher film. Some laughs, a bit of gore and a great score.
Xmas factor: Lots of snow, some Christmas lights and a killer Santa.
