Christmas Horror

by sfpx

Dec 2018
Hey, it's Christmastime everyone - there needs to be a Christmas themed horror movie thread here at Trash Epics, right? RIGHT???

So this is it here. Post whatever you want about Christmas horror movies.

With Christmas being my favorite holiday, and horror being my favorite movie genre, it would only make sense that, when the two merge together, it has the potential to cure CANCER. No, I'm kidding. Just thought it'd be funny to say "CANCER" in a holiday-themed thread.

I love this time of year, I really do, and get all gushy over lights and decorations and yes, even the dreaded Christmas music. Call me a masochist, but I love that shit. And then there's the food. Oh boy. The food.

But back to movies. I watched Christmas Evil aka You Better Watch Out (I like this title better) the other night. I really enjoyed it, probably even moreso than the one time I saw it however many years ago. The movie isn't your traditional slasher flick, despite the fact that it's sometimes lumped in as one, and I think that's what I admired so much about it this time. If viewed as a twisted black comedy it seriously rocks. Brandon Maggart, the main dude who wants so badly to be Santa Claus and just make kids happy, is great in the role. I never knew this until recently, but he's Fiona Apple's dad, which I found interesting, for no particular reason really.

Anyway, I liked the film a lot, enough to possibly start including it in my yearly watches 'round this time of year, next to unbeatable classics like Black Christmas and Silent Night, Deadly Night.

So...post anything you want about Christmas horror films, recommendations, traditions you have with your own personal movie viewings, etc. Whatever.

Christmas Evil is my favorite Christmas movie, period. Horror or not. I love that movie. It portrays the true Christmas spirit better than any other. Some others I like besides the obvious like Black Christmas, Silent Night Deadly Night, Gremlins etc. are.

Silent Night Deadly Night 4 : Initiation - This kind of suffers the same syndrome as Halloween 3. Really should be called something else as it has no relation to the franchise. I think as a movie on its own it is damn good. Brian Yuzna directed it and seemed to be in Society mode when he did in my opinion.

Silent Night Bloody Night - Solid low budget film that clearly influenced Black Christmas.

Elves - Just a crazy entertaining mess

Christmas Evil is not only the best Christmas horror movie it is the best Christmas movie period. Besides being a great psychological study horror film along the same vein as Maniac it has the most Christmas spirit and shows the true meaning of Christmas.
