    If Hallmark wanted to do something really funny, they’d air one of these movies as normal, only to have it transform into Lovecraftian horror as the film descends into madness. What looks like filming/continuity mistakes are actually deliberate as they begin to happen more and more frequently. The characters (typical Hallmark Channel characters) begin to realize Christmas isn’t coming as reality becomes unstable. Soon they find themselves shopping for the coming apocalypse. A shadow descends upon the town, a God older than time itself, now awake to punish them for their worship of false idols.

    The screen fades to black as the screaming starts, then the Hallmark Channel goes off the air permanently after thanking its viewers for being part of the experiment. Re-runs of Looney Toons begins to play 24/7, 365 with no commercial breaks the following day starting at 5 AM.
