Hold onto your chestnuts, because Christmas is coming early this year!
Halloween will see Santa slaying as Dystopian Films’ THE NIGHTS BEFORE CHRISTMAS has just been announced as part of October’s FrightFest line-up! The festive slasher sees a psychotic Santa and Mrs. Claus killing their way through a very special list in the run-up to Christmas, with the FBI hot on their tail.
Producer Ken Bressers said “We’ve always loved it when movies subvert the genre a little… classics like Gremlins, or Die Hard set with the Christmas backdrop… well here’s a real Christmas story to watch when the Hallmark type Christmas movies are making you feel too safe! FrightFest is a great honour and we’re thrilled to be part of the line up.”
THE NIGHTS BEFORE CHRISTMAS is directed by Paul Tanter and stars Kate Schroder, Marc Gammal, Simon Phillips, Sayla De Goede, Keegan Chambers and Anne-Carolyn Binnette. The film will be released on DVD and all major home entertainment platforms on November 2nd in the UK through Kalaidoscope Entertainment, with a U.S, Australia and New Zealand release following in December.
