“A
Christmas Horror Story [has] everything a genre nut could want under the
tree: teen sex, elf zombies, a demonic Krampus...and [William] Shatner.”- John
DeFore- Hollywood Reporter
“Loaded
with insane, bloody violence that’s also really fun in spirit. … the filmmakers
pull off a twist that’s so shocking it could save Christmas.” - Brad
Miska, BloodyDisgusting.com
”Badass!
Loved it!” –Harry Knowles, Ain’t It Cool News
"A
blackly comic tale of Christmas carnage…the ending is epic”-
Jason Gober, Twitch Film Twitch.
CHRISTMAS:
a time of Joy, Peace and Goodwill. Unless you happen to live in the town
of Bailey Downs. Here, on Christmas Eve, joy is corrupted when
a malevolent spirit traps three teens in a school basement intent on recreating
a twisted version of the Nativity story. Peace is shattered when
a family returns from a snowy forest with the perfect Christmas tree only to
find something is terrifyingly wrong with their 7-year old son. And goodwill is perverted when
a not-so-nice family is hunted down by Krampus, the demonic anti-Santa Claus of
Nordic mythology. Even Santa Claus himself is drawn into the horror when he has
to fight off a horde of howling Zombie Elves before making his rounds.
This Christmas, the creatures are stirring and they’re coming for you whether
you were naughty or nice.
