011 Christmas Horror (Black Christmas, Silent Night Deadly Night, Christmas Evil, Krampus)

Merry Christmas, or whatever! We know we’re early, but with the release of KRAMPUS this past weekend, it’s as good a time as any to start the Holiday Horror conversation. Before diving into the humble beginnings of the Christmas-set slasher, Brett and Joe remember the late Robert Loggia, discuss the latest news on the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise as well as Universal’s latest attempt to cash-in on their classic monster properties. Brett briefly discusses Tarantino’s THE HATEFUL EIGHT and Spike Lee’s CHI-RAQ before Joe lays Marvel to rest and the conversation shifts to BLACK CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS EVIL, SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT, and finally, KRAMPUS. ’Tis the season … almost.
