Filmmaker John Waters is the "King of Bad Taste," but that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy a fun Christmas tune here at the tail end of the calendar year. Granted, his Christmas carol choices aren't necessarily what you might usually hear on the radio at your family holiday gathering, but in this charming conversation from 20 years ago, Waters shares his favorite Christmas traditions, tunes and more.
