The A.V. Club’s New Cult Canon comes back with a jingle this holiday season and with help from our friends at mike’s hard lemonade, we're taking the show on the road to celebrate the 2012 Holiday season.

We’ll be screening either Bad Santa or the original Black Christmas (1974) in 12 cities around the country between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Each screening will come with an introduction from an A.V. Club staffer and several will feature special guests. Your ticket includes access to the movie as well as your choice of two mike’s hard lemonade beverages, including mike’s new, limited-edition holiday flavor, mike’s hard chocolate cherry (where allowed by law)**. All screenings are open to patrons 21+ only.

BAD SANTA

After spending a full century churning out heart-warming, inspirational Christmas stories, Hollywood finally gave misanthropes a glorious hunk of coal in Terry Zwigoff’s dark comedy Bad Santa. As a thieving, womanizing, gin-soaked mall Santa, Billy Bob Thornton delivers the surliness and profanity that’s as much a part the holiday season as carols and good cheer.

BLACK CHRISTMAS

Halloween gets all the credit for kick-starting the ‘80s slasher movement, but Bob Clark’s ho-ho-horrifying 1974 cult classic Black Christmas was the true source, specifically of the first-person “killer-cam” that came into fashion. Clark’s moody chiller about a psycho stalking a sorority house over Christmas break has other highlights, too, including Margot Kidder as a chain-smoking, transcendentally bitchy sister.
