It was the third "Vacation" comedy featuring the Griswald family- Clark. Ellen,Rusty and Audrey- and all Clark wanted to have a simple old-fashioned Christmas with family. His plan: to heavily decorate the house and roof with lights, Santa and reindeer, and to enjoy a simple Christmas dinner before celebrating the real meaning of Christmas. Instead he got uninvited family with their huge slobbering Rottweiler, an uninvited wild squirrel, electrical problems, big sewage problems, fire, and a SWAT team. Halleluyah!

This is the story of the bloody battle for Okinawa in 1945- the last stop before the invasion of the island of Japan, which continued to refuse to surrender even though Emperor Hirohito and the top military elite knew they had no chance of winning.The Japanese dug in with 140,000 army regulars and Okinawan conscripts and prepared for an all out suicide war using civilians as human shields. Over 1000 Kamikaze planes were turned loose on the fleet supporting the Okinawa invasion, and for 81 straight days the American forces on land and sea fought a hellish battle against an unyielding enemy. The Battle of Hacksaw Ridge and the role of conscientiousobjector Desmond Doss is an integral part of this story.

In March of 1692 the little village of Salem Massachusetts became a hotbed of lies, deception, and fear as a group of teenage girls went into convulsions and named selected locals as witches who were possessing them. The judge, the reverends, and most of the townspeople were caught up in the frenzy and fear and those who spoke up faced sure retribution. When the witch hunt started it gained momentum- and was at its worst when a four year old girl whose mother had already been accused was interrogated for two weeks until she finally broke down and admitted she was a witch so she could go to the gallows with her mother.
