The Saddest Christmas Movies of All Time!

You know, when I sit down to watch a holiday movie, I expect to feel good, not burst into hysterics questioning my life choices.

But here we are.

I've been tricked into watching these movies, ready for a jolly good time. And then I'm puffy-faced and sad.

So why do we watch sad movies at Christmas?

According the lifehacker.com, "the movies (and life) teach us that any holiday meal with a sufficient number of guests must involve drama of some sort: somebody’s pregnant, somebody’s getting married or divorced, someone’s coming out of the closet, someone’s dying. The season truly has it all."

These are some of the SADDEST Christmas movies of all time. Consider yourself warned!

"Jack Frost"

"Klaus"

"The Muppet Christmas Carol"

"Last Christmas"

"The Family Man"

"The Family Stone"

"It's a Wonderful Life"
