Fantasia 2015: Clip Provides Sneak Peek of Anthology A Christmas Horror Story
There are several horror anthologies headed our way, including Holidays and Tales of Halloween, which makes us pretty damn excited about the near future. Joining those two festive treats is A Christmas Horror Story, equipped with three tales of holiday terrors.
Ahead of the premiere at this year’s Fantasia Film Festival, check out a gory clip from A Christmas Horror Story‘s first segment below!
A collaboration among writers Doug Taylor (Splice), Sarah Larsen (“Darknet”), James Kee (“Darknet”), and Pascal Trottier (Hellions), the film will feature segments directed by Grant Harvey (Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning), Brett Sullivan (“Orphan Black”), and Steven Hoban (“Darknet”).
Santa’s trusty elves become flesh-hungry monsters in the first story, which centers on a mysterious disease that sweeps through the North Pole, transforming the elves into the ravenous undead. Santa and the Missus wage a desperate battle for survival.
The mythical demon Krampus comes to life in the second, with the wicked Bauer family discovering that the stories of an evil Santa Claus are all too real. And they will be punished for their dastardly deeds.
And in the third and final tale of this holiday horror anthology, a troubled cop takes his wife and young son out to pick up the perfect Christmas tree, which stands tall on land owned by the nefarious Big Earl. Daddy goes missing on Big Earl’s land, and when he turns up again, he isn’t quite himself.
