A couple months ago, Darcy the Mail Girl revealed that there would be five Joe Bob Briggs specials released through the Shudder streaming service between the third and fourth seasons of the weekly The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs series. Since then we’ve seen Joe Bob’s Halloween Hoedown and The Last Drive-In: The Walking Dead, and now the third special has been officially announced: on Friday, December 17th, at 9pm Eastern / 6pm Pacific, Joe Bob Ruins Christmas!
Joe Bob himself said,
We’re baaaack! It’s an auction, it’s a telethon, and it’s the kind of genre-bending movie choices that are guaranteed to make you say “Huh? What? Explain that one again.” Join us for a major distortion of what Christmas is all about.
As usual, the titles of the movies that will be shown during the special are being kept secret until Joe Bob introduces them on the show. It can be quite difficult to guess how these specials are going to go – for example, the movies shown during the Halloween Hoedown (which had David Gordon Green and Jason Blum stopping by to discuss Halloween Kills) were the teenage prostitute movie Angel and the New Year slasher Terror Train. Not the typical Halloween selections.
Joe Bob Ruins Christmas is the legendary movie host’s fourth Christmas special since his partnership with Shudder began in 2018. For A Very Joe Bob Christmas, he showed Phantasm, Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead, Phantasm: OblIVion, and Phantasm: Ravager. For Joe Bob’s Red Christmas, he showed Black Christmas (1974), Jack Frost (1997), and Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2. And for Joe Bob Saves Christmas he showed Dial Code Santa Claus and Christmas Evil.
I’m always hyped to see more Joe Bob, so there’s no doubt I will be watching Joe Bob Ruins Christmas.
