BACK IN NOVEMBER, Netflix released an original film called A Christmas Prince – a movie that’s already gone on to achieve instant cult status for being so bad it’s good.
A few days ago, Netflix followed it up with another romcom in the same genre.
Introducing ‘Christmas Inheritance’
The plot is everything you hoped it would be, and more:
Before ambitious heiress Ellen Langford can inherit her father’s gift business, she must deliver a special Christmas card to her dad’s former partner in Snow Falls, the hometown she never knew. When a snowstorm strands her at the town inn, she’s forced to work for her keep, and in the process, finds romance and discovers the true gift of Christmas.
And people have so many thoughts:
1. Look, we know the plot already, but we’re not put off
2. The main character is an awful person but we’re here for her
3. The prop department produces some of the best laughs
4. Seriously, this artwork is the star of the show
5. The prop department were at it again with the “snow”
6. You can’t take your eyes off it, even if you know it’s The Worst
7. A Christmas Prince or Christmas Inheritance: You must choose
8. It might be hard to pick between the two though
9. Netflix have high hopes for the pair of them
10. The Netflix public is thankful to have such festive trash at this time of year
11. Yes, this is the rule
12. Netflix, you’ve done it again
13. The small town she goes to can’t even handle a power outage
14. Christmas Inheritance is such a conundrum, which is summed up perfectly by this tweet
15. For trash movie lovers, this is heaven right now
16. What next?
Oh no.
If the Oscars had a ‘Best Worst Movie’ category, these two would be automatic noms.
