Videos of a fire blazing were never so entertaining. We just cannot tell you ANYTHING about this movie before you watch it, or it’ll spoil all the fun. All you need to know is: You MUST watch this. And then come back here and we’ll chat about this Christmas treat.
Does it intend to make a political statement? Yes. Several. Kind of akin to spending an awkward family holiday dinner with your most overtly racist relatives, it’s not gonna fill you with warmth and goodness. But this is a horror movie, after all, so whaddya expect? So drink up and drink in this highly-emotional feature-length Twilight Zone episode of what happens when a family’s already-awful Christmas Eve festivities get turned completely upside-down.
Whoo hoo! Brimming with holiday goodness from beginning to end, this Norwegian film from last year turned out to be the PERFECT beginning to our annual month of holiday horrror! Thanks for the recommendations, guys!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, horror fans! As we dive into the holiday season, we recognize that it’s not just about Christmas; it’s a time...
Man, we really REALLY wanted to love this film. The title, the concept, the trailers, the writer, and even some of our favorite horror actors involved (Justin Long!) had us looking forward to settling down to a nice holiday treat for horror fans. But ultimately we felt it was a bit disappointing. Listen and find out why! Merry Christmas to all our loyal listeners. We are thankful you’re around.
