These lists are chronological and not necessarily in order of preference.

Favourite:

Black Christmas (1974)
Gremlins (1984)
Lethal Weapon (1987)
Die Hard (1988)
Scrooged (1988)
Christmas Vacation (1989)
Home Alone (1990)
Batman Returns (1992)
The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
The Santa Clause (1995)
Jingle All the Way (1996)
Krampus (2015)

Least Favourite:

The Santa Clause 2 (2002)
The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006)

I'm on the fence about Santa Claus: The Movie (1984), but for now I'm not going to include it on either list.

That is probably the best version of Charles Dickens classic tale. I do like the Muppet version as well.
