12 Holiday Movies With Dysfunctional Families

Every family's got at least one: Whether it's a crazy cousin, a drunken uncle, or a kooky grandparent, there's always someone who adds a little excitement to the family dynamics. And since the holidays are about a lot of together time, your family's eccentricities can become especially apparent this time of year. Rather than throwing back excessive amounts of eggnog to help deal, escape the dysfunction for some fictional family drama with these 12 Christmas classics (all available on Amazon). Eggnog optional.
