8/10
An interesting twist on family Christmas movies

Warning: Spoilers
"Eve's Christmas" tells the story of time-travelling Eve, a high maintenance alcoholic and serial cheater who practices witchcraft for selfish gains.

It's Christmas Eve and Eve is climbing the ranks of her company by sleeping with her married boss. He needs a short break from her on Christmas, which drives her into another rage-fueled night of drinking and excess. She contacts an ex-boyfriend for a booty call, only to learn that he's now happily married with children.

Driven by envy and anger, she senses the presence of Christmas Magic and malevolently conjures evil black magicks to pervert and corrupt it to her will. As a redhead, dark magic is child's play. Twisting the good magic to her own evil purpose, she uses its awesome power to propel herself 12 years into the past.

In the past, she destroys her younger (healthy) liver and exploits knowledge of the future for financial gain. She also manipulates and tricks her ex (Scott) into marrying her. She intentionally destroys the proper timeline, erasing Scott's children and happy marriage from history, and thus taking him for her own.

It's a great Christmas movie containing black magic, murder, and how far selfish people will go to gratify their own desires. Very different, I enjoyed it immensely. However, I am only giving it an eight out of ten because it's categorized as a Family Movie and I think it instills wrong moral values of extreme self-centrism.
