Netflix subscribers are wasting no time getting into the holiday spirit. We're just one day into the month of December — 24 days away from Christmas — and the holiday movie takeover is already beginning. When you look at Wednesday's edition of the Top 10 movies list on Netflix, you'll find that half of the spots on that list are taken by Christmas movies. Folks are diving headfirst into the holiday season.

New hit movies like Bruised and Red Notice find themselves on Wednesday's Top 10, but they're surrounded by Christmas films both new and old. A Castle for Christmas, the new release starring Brooke Shields and Cary Elwes, is currently the second-most popular movie on the entire streaming service.

A Boy Called Christmas and Love Hard are two other holiday films that were released this year, and they have found themselves in the fourth and ninth positions on the list, respectively. In between them are two movies in a single franchise, which continues to be popular amongst movie fans.

The Christmas Chronicles and The Christmas Chronicles 2 both star Kurt Russell as Santa Claus, taking fans on adventures through big cities and the North Pole.
