Merry Christmas!
The UK has named Elf as the top Xmas movie, followed by Home Alone and Love Actually in a shortlist of 15 classic titles.
Curtains.com investigated which 15 cities are the most festive using UK Google search data, analysing the number of searches for the most popular Christmas movies this festive season.
Surprisingly, traditional Xmas movies, including A Miracle on 34th Street and It’s a Wonderful Life, didn’t make the top five. Elfalone was searched for twice as often as the two traditional titles.
Hitting the bottom of the charts was Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas, followed by A Christmas Story, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Babes in Toyland and A Charlie Brown Christmas.
Unconventional festive films included Die Hard, which was in fourth place with nearly 14,000 searches, and Gremlins (No.5) with a little over 11,000.
Tim Burton’s dark Chrimbo classics, Edward Scissorhands (No.7) and The Nightmare Before Christmas (No.9) also made it into the top 10.
The list of the top 15 Christmas movie searches are detailed below:
- Elf
- Home Alone
- Love Actually
- Die Hard
