Torture Cinema Poll #11: The Holiday Special? You Decide…
It’s that time of year again! And that means we’re going to have to review another holiday-themed genre flick. Call it “Deck the Halls with Bows of Awful” or “Torture Bells” or “Torture the Red-Tinged Brainsmear.” Whatever you want to call our once-a-year Torture Cinema special, the most important thing you need to know is that you get to choose what we watch. So take your little clicker thing and vote! Links to films: The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006) Elves (1989) The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978) Santa’s Slay (2005)

This month, we watched and reviewed Midnight Chronicles, a glorious fantasy stinker foisted upon us by Alison Marlowe. To make matters worse, we were tasked with doing three different impressions for the skit. And that’s where a little trivia comes in: The first person to guess which three famous actors we are poorly trying to impersonate (and I mean POORLY) will get a free science fiction and/or fantasy book from me. All you need to do is send your answers to skiffyandfanty[at]gmail[dot]com or leave a comment below. As long as I can send the book to you without having to spend $50, you can enter. So enter!
