         A new page is under construction, and won't be widely launched until it's
         full completion.  However, you as MUTANT readers (wise beyond your years)
         are privy to the scoop.
        
         Since a number of web pages exist that are devoted to movies we review,
         we're creating a link page that shows you only the best and brightest of
         these links.  Further expand your cult movie fanaticism!
        
         The page is at:
         http://www.geocities.com/~aral/rpages.html
        
         And it is also linked off of the "Features" page
        
         CHRISTMAS AND WHAT TO WATCH *********************************
        
         If you're like me (and who ain't?), torturing the family dog during the
         Christmas season can only get you so far.  Fighting boredom and family
         togetherness takes movie savvy, so why not check out these three unusual
         Christmas films:
        
         "The Ref": One of my all-time favorites, Denis Leary stars as a kidnapper
         who takes a dysfunctional family hostage on Christmas Eve.
        
         "A Christmas Story": I consider this a classic, although many people
         haven't seen it.  It follows the saga of a young boy in the 50s (I think)
         who only wants a Red Ryder BB Gun (with compass stock) for Christmas.
         Terrifically funny.
        
         "Nat'l Lampoon's Christmas Vacation": What would Christmas be like without
         the Griswalds and the largest set of Christmas lights ever known to man?
         I would not want to be in such a world.
        
         Until next time,
         Head Mutant Justin
