its that time.....
 

for the CHRISTMAS horror list...list all u know.

Silent Night, Bloody Night

Christmas Evil

Gremlins

Silent Night, Deadly Night

Black Christmas

Just getting ya'll started. ;)

Profondo Rosso starts with a Christmas scene

Don't Open Til Christmas is pretty cool. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is also a classic. Can't go wrong with that one

Santa's Slay is one that hasn't been mentioned, which I'd recommend for fans of cheese. And with Christmas themed horror, what else is there? (Minus the excellent Black Christmas...)

While not horror related, another great Christmas-ish cheese film is The Hebrew Hammer.

Santa's Slay was a decent movie actually. It was corny, but come on, who can't enjoy seeing people getting slaughtered to Christmas music!?

Tales from the Crypt (the Amicus anthology) has one of its stories set at Christmas (the one with Joan Collins in it).

I too enjoyed Santa's Slay. It was corny as hell, but I had fun. I mean, how can you not have fun watching Bill Goldberg killing Fran Drescher?

As for a christmas horror movie, Jack Frost has yet to be mentioned.

The Nightmare before Christmas.....

I'm going to see it in 3D on Friday night.

Oooh, I have to see this! I have heard good things.

You really should. I haven't seen to many movies in recent memory that were this fun. Especially as far as holiday movies go.

i thought santa's slay was tons of fun. threw a whole bunch of offensive humor in there too.
has anyone seen Jack Frost 2?

Ooo, Good call... Can I come?

Possibly one of my favorite Christmas movies, by far.

Other Christmas horror movies:

Black Christmas. Honestly, I've only seen the remake, which I thought was decent... I'm Netflixing the original as I type.

...

I second Gremlins (I love the speech that she makes)...

...

BRILLIANT.

...

And I think the original Die Hard deserves a mention, though not horror per say, it IS an atypical Christmas movie.

...

I tried to Netflix Silent Night, Deadly Night, but it doesn't seem to be in the database. :mad:

"Santa's Slay" actually had some redeeming things about it. Fun, light pseudo-horror entertainment.

The original is a great film. You won't regret it.

I have it, but haven't watched it.

Damn it!

Gremlins is on early Saturday night and I have to work.....

Yes, definitely.......Die Hard certainly deserves a mention here because technically, it is a Christmas film. Not your usual one, certainly!

It would be a very twisted thing to watch on Christmas day. I generally watch a George Romero zombie flick, myself. It's tradition.

I know.....I've been meaning to watch it forever, and finally got around to trying to add it, not there. :mad: And yes, definitely watch the original Black Christmas as soon as possible. A damn fine horror film. The remake is shameful, shameful I say! Haha....;)

Oh and we had lots of fun with Santa's Slay as well, just watched it a few weeks ago.

haha I always watch die hard around christmas. It's one of the only movies that involved an exploding helicopter that I actually like, Bruce Willis > .

For all of those who want to see Silent Night, Deadly Night, go to filmhill.com. They have tons of movies to watch there (I watched Bad Taste and Dr. Giggles on that site). I have seen SNDN, but years ago when my local blockbuster had a copy to rent. Just thought I could help.

What are your top christmas themed horror movies?
 

My top 7:

1. Black Christmas (1974)
2. Gremlins
3. Silent Night Deadly Night
4. Christmas Evil (a.k.a. You Better Watch Out).
5. Night of the Comet
6. Tales from the Crypt (1972)

You got number one right.

Christmas themed Horror Movies?
 

I am wondering what the best Christmas or winter themed horror movies are. I love Christmas and I love horror, but I'm just not sure what's out there.

Thanks so much!

(I am sure there have been threads on this and I did try searching, but didn't find any)

I like Don't Open Til Christmas. I found Silent Night, Deadly Night disappointing and unfun.

Christmas Evil is really great..

Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 is amazingly stupidly great.....

I love the Tales from the Crypt with the Psycho and the Santa Suit..

Gremlins one is set at Xmas too..

and lots of stuff like:

No way. I love that flick its a trash classic and the sequel is funny as shit.

Black Christmas(1974) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071222/

This movie is surprisingly humorous......if that's what you are looking for in your Christmas horror.....

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0393685/

Penance has a great scene of Christmas joy by the ol' Yule tree.

LOL - I mmight give it a rewatch this year with the family over a glass or 2 of eggnog.

I wish it had more of a sense of humor. I thought it took itself way too seriously. I like the premise, I like the kills, but I wish it had been a bit lighter.

I don't know if I'd say it took itself way too seriously. I think its intent was to be nasty and over the top (something I love about 80s slashers). Did you see the shitstorm it caused upon release in the doco Going To Pieces?

Classic! :D

YES.

Hands down my favorite slasher. Ever.

Night of the Comet sorta counts, though it's more New Year's Themed... One of my favorite zombie movies.

There's always Gremlins and Nightmare Before Christmas.

There is a christmas celebration in the film Mum and Dad.

Haha - good call...

I was trying to get my GF to hold CHristmas DAy celebrations randomly after watching that film..

santas SLAY!
