Happy Ber Months, everybody! The seasons are starting to change, and with it comes a new episode of Christmas Creeps! On this episode we dip into the world of Charles Dickens with a look at Robert Zemeckis’ 2009 CGI adaptation of “A Christmas Carol”. This one stars Jim Carrey and, because it was bankrolled by Disney, has earned itself the title Disney’s A Christmas Carol, even though Disney’s made plenty of versions of it over the years…

But let’s not let semantics get in the way of a good time, right? On this episode we’ll be discussing the ways Zemeckis uses his CGI superpowers to stretch Jim Carrey’s face and Charles Dickens’ story in new, unnecessary directions. And hey, if you make it to the end of this one, ya get a little bit of video game chat as a treat!
