National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989) | Third Annual Christmas Special | Movie Review

Merry Christmas listeners! 30 years ago, in 1989, right before the start of a new and final decade for the 20th century, moviegoers got a treat that Christmas season as they went with America's favorite family, the Griswolds, on Christmas vacation. Written by the prolific John Hughes (who wrote Home Alone one year later) and starring the hilarious Chevy Chase plus an all-star cast--Christmas Vacation has become ingrained in our cultural zeitgeist as a ridiculous but all-too-realistic portrait of families getting together for the Christmas holiday. Join Corbin and Allen this Christmas Day as they review National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation!
