5. Elf Will Ferrell is hilarious. Wearing yellow tights and a pointy hat makes him even funnier.  So, Elf began with an unfair advantage over other Christmas films. And, it delivered on its promise, spinning a heartwarming yearn about an orphan, who was raised by elves, venturing out in search of his human family. We can all relate. 4. Gremlins The 1980’s and 1990's produced some fantastic horror/comedy combinations.
