Variety - Waters, who claims to have an unironic love of Christmas, has put together a collection of holiday tunes (also titled "A John Waters Christmas" and released by New Line's music division) that combines the tastelessly mawkish with unearthed R&amp;B gems. His 45-minute monologue only mentioned the album in passing; instead, his loosely structured, often hilarious comments touched on holiday shoplifting, memories of Baltimore Christmases past, what presents to buy him (books, including a cookbook written by a serial killer and "Call Me Lumpy," the autobiography of "Leave It To Beaver" sidekick Frank Bank), his favorite holiday movie ("Christmas Evil," which climaxes with a homicidal Claus protected from a mob by a ring of children), and visions of holiday collaborations with producer William Castle (the low-budget frightmeister who specialized in stunts like "The Tingler," where auds were literally shocked out of their seats), leading to Christmas tie-in travesties such as "The Care Bear Massacres" and "I Dismember Rainbow Brite."
