Try some unusual Christmas movies this season

Yes, but: I still adore silly holiday rom-coms and have already seen "Elf" twice this year — so I'm not judging!

Caveat: Not all the movies shown here will fill you with holiday spirit. Some of them are … upsetting.

• This list features entries from me, as well as Axios San Diego reporter Claire Trageser.

🏰 "The Green Knight": This movie involves a strange tree-looking knight challenging Dev Patel to "The Christmas Game." Definitely about Christmas.

🎭 "Eyes Wide Shut": It starts at a Christmas party and ends with Christmas shopping. What happens in between has little to do with Christmas.

🏫 "The Holdovers": I definitely recommend adding this heartwarming and bittersweet story to your list — it's all about the meaning of the holidays, though it's not technically a Christmas movie.

🐘 "Jumanji": Sure, the vibes are more jungle horrorscape than winter magic, but "Jumanji" is the best and Robin Williams wears a Santa suit.

🚋 "Meet Me in St. Louis": The song "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" was introduced in this movie.

👹 "Gremlins": This classic, cautionary tale is actually seen by some people as a bona fide Christmas movie.

🚉 "While You Were Sleeping": In this classic rom-com, Sandra Bullock rescues Peter Gallagher from the subway tracks on Christmas Day.

🔪 "American Psycho": This might not be the best option to have in the background while trimming the tree with family, but it does include a Christmas party.
