Please find below a half dozen newly-released holiday movies that are available right now on a wide variety of platforms to make the holiday season merry, bright and a little different.

A Christmas Karen (Streaming on demand and on digital via all major platforms – AppleTV, Amazon, GooglePlay, Vudu, Microsoft Movies and more) – Please put this one at the top of the list as it is our reason for bringing you this list in the first place J. A Christmas Karen stars Michele Simms, who first rose to fame as the super excited “Oversharing Mom” in the viral Carvana television commercials. The film is a hilarious reimagining of the classic A Christmas Carol – centering on an entitled middle-aged woman with a very Scrooge-like bad attitude who gets an “intervention” from three unconventional spirits.
