‘Yuletide Horror’ Documentary Drops New Teaser Full Of Bloody Holiday Cheer

Holiday horror is the reason for the season for us genre fans and there’s no shortage of it. From killer santas to home invasions, the holidays are the perfect backdrop for an array of horrific scenarios (we’re looking at your, Inside). Ethan Evans, Jess Bartlett, and Kieran Nolan Jones are taking advantage of our love of blood in the snow for their upcoming documentary Yuletide Horror, which will dive into why we love this subgenre so much.

In the documentary’s initial announcement,

“Featuring interviews with horror experts, filmmakers and scholars Yuletide Horror will chart the history of the holiday season’s roots, from disturbing folklore from around the world to the genre’s proliferation and unyielding appeal in modern-day horror cinema. While exploring the key and varied cinematic staples of the subgenre, the documentary will investigate its cultural influences, as well as uncover the themes and subtext which sit menacingly underneath the Christmas tree.”

Directed by Evans (The Haunted Museum, Urban Legends, Time Out), and co-produced by Bartlett (Time Out, Stagnant) and Jones (Teen Screams, Nightmare Fuel), Yuletide Horror is co-written by the trio. The film is a co-production between Evans’ and Bartlett’s Terror Arcade and Nolan Jones’ Hellmouth Pictures label.
