Another Christmas movie
"A great double feature from this director. I actually hadn't even noticed the second feature since it is given so little space on the packaging. Both are well made with little money. Lifechanger is probably the better and more impressively made of the two. Tons of extras with extensive documentaries. I'd give 5 stars for the Naked News clip alone. (A brief segment with the great Katherine Curtis. I was a huge Naked News fan in the 00's. ) Lifechanger's body jumping plot has been done in other movies (e. g. Amanda and the Alien, the eternal classic), but it still is very well done. A little odd that they choose an actor with a long white beard who looks like one of the Oak Ridge Boys to play the "I'm not as young as I look" scene. Recommended."

"So the slipcover initially drew my attention, and glad it did. Don't know if it'll change your life, but it's definitely worth a watch!"
