It’s just about that time of year when my favorite movie genre meets the most wonderful time of the year. :eek:
Christmas Evil
All Through the House
Saint
Black Christmas
Good Tidings
To All a Good Night
Silent Night Deadly Night
Silent Night
Santa’s Slay
There are more, but these will be on my playlist this year.
(Gremlins doesn’t count… too cutesy)
Discuss???
I can’t think of any Christmas horror stories off the top of my head but I’ll keep checking this thread for suggestions of stuff to watch.
Die Hard?
I love all horror movies, including Christmas ones. My favorite is probably A Christmas Horror Story with William Shatner. It was on Netflix last year; I’m hoping it comes back for the upcoming season.
Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale
Here’s the original short from 2003, which led to the feature film seven years later.
Certainly not a horror movie.
Edited to add, there’s also the movie Krampus.
AND not a Christmas movie 
Not exactly horror, but still a great Christmas time flick. Accepted.
That was good, very atmospheric.
Awesome, that’s one I hadn’t heard of. I’ll definitely find and watch it.
Yeah, it’s not the most advertised, or commercially viable sub-genre… something about ruining Santa Claus for kids, the li’l twerps. 
But they’re out there, and if you want 'em bad enough, you’ll find 'em. There’s a couple stinkers, but most are actually good… at least as far as horror movies go. I’ll vouch for all on my list.
That’s another one I haven’t seen yet… add it to my list.
I feel like there’s a movie called Jack Frost, that’s not a family comedy. That has to be right, doesn’t it?
What, no Krampus?
A couple more from 2007:
P2
Rachel Nichols works too late on Christmas Eve and gets taken hostage by the insane garage attendant. Comme ci comme ça.
Wind Chill
College kids ride-share home for Christmas but get stuck on an abandoned road. I liked it a lot, but I’ve always been a big fan of Emily Blunt so my opinion may be skewed.
Plus several of the ones already mentioned in this thread. How much do I love Christmas horror movies? I’ll soon be watching Anna and the Apocalypse even though I despise musicals.
Also, I guess maybe Gremlins counts?
Googling around to jog my memory of others I’ve seen:
The Children (2009)
The family Christmas holiday takes a turn when all the young kids turn into murderous psychopaths. I’ve seen this at least twice; good murdery fun. (It’s not a comedy in any way.)
That same googling turned up the following as highly recommend, but I haven’t seen it. Note: The recommendations make a point to not say anything about it for fear of spoiling it.
Dead End (2003)
Leads are Ray Wise and Lyn Shaye? Sold!
That one was exceptional; Shatner was outstanding.
“Holidays,” is an anthology flick; the Xmas one is funny, kinda.
See post #6.
Santa’s Slay has Bill Goldberg playing a demon Santa that kills Fran Drescher by lighting her hair on fire.
Jack Frost has a murderous snowman that rapes a woman in the shower by using a carrot as his dick.
I only know these things from reading WrestleCrap.
