Would you just look at all these stills from Christmas themed horror flicks I scrounged up! How many can you identify?
If you’re not sure, feel free to guess. If you don’t care to guess, leave a comment telling us which Christmas movie (horror or otherwise) is your favorite!
One lucky commenter is going to win a fabulous Kindertrauma T-shirt sort of like the one worn below by Kinderpal Taylor!
Note: The Kindertrauma prize t-shirt will be white and size medium, large, or extra-large (winner’s choice!) with the same artwork as the one Taylor picked up at Kindertrauma Mart.
Also: The winner will be announced tomorrow so that everybody will get a chance regardless of time zone! (Step it up Left Coasters!) Good luck to all!
Ooh, a toughie! I only know a few (blame it on my lack of Christmas horror viewing)
1: Gremlins
5: Christmas Evil
11: Silent Night, Deadly Night
12: Black Christmas (?)
15: Tales From The Crypt episode “And All Through The House”
Six is Too All a Goonight. Awesomely bad and awesomely awesome.
Alas, the only 2 of these that I knew for sure have been guessed already. I’m crying! (Again.)
And in the immortal words of Tim Meadows, it is one kickass shirt! Ronald McDonald seemed to think so too.
I got some of these..
3. SNDN Part 3 Better Watch Out!
4. SNDN5 Toymaker
8. SNDN part 2
9. SNDN4 Initiation
13. 1972 Tales from the Crypt awesome!
Could 14 be Trancers? I seem to remember a Santa in the mall???
Pride Comes Before The Fall: I thought I was gonna ace this and again I suck!
Number 11 is SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT fo shizzle but I have to guess
is #4 CHRISTMAS EVIL and
#9 SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT 4:THE INITIATION?
Could 2 be the 1975 Black Christmas?
1 Gremlins
3 Silent Night, Deadly Night 3
10 Black Christmas
11 Silent Night, Deadly Night
13 Tales From the Crypt (1972)
15 Tales From the Crypt “And All Through The House”
I’ve been working my way through the Silent Night Deadly Night series this past week. Last night I watched part 3…I have a feeling, as I move forward, that number one will remain my fave…
1. Gremlins
5. Christmas Evil?
10. Black Christmas
13. Tales From the Crypt (1972)
This one was kinda tough! I love Christmas Evil, if even for the ending alone. I dunno if it’s true or not, but someone once told me that the deranged Santa in this is played by Fiona Apple’s dad.
1. Gremlins. I have to admit I’m not much of a Christmas horror buff. I tend to gravitate to the Christams themed episodes on that show that had a guy & two robots making fun of movies.
No. 8 is ‘Santa’s Slay.’
#1 Gremlins (1984)
#10 Black Christmas (1974)
#13 Tales From the Crypt (1972)
#15 Tales From the Crypt (TV series)
I love Black Christmas (1974)! It is awesome!
I really need to start getting up earlier so I actually have a shot of guessing these. The only ones I knew were the Tales from the Crypt episodes/movie. BUT NOW I have so many more movies to choose from for my Black Christmas Party!
All the ones I knew were already guessed. 🙁 and great, looks like I’ll go back to the recurring childhood nightmares about ronald mcdonald.
I only got a few …
1.) Gremlins (1984)
10.) Black Christmas (1974)
12.) Black Christmas (2006)
It’s not a horror film, but I’ve always been a sucker for the MARLO THOMAS made-for-T.V. classic IT HAPPENED ONE CHRISTMAS.
Wasn’t there an annual TV Christmas movie with Mickey Rooney and the kid from Critters? I feel like I would watch that one every year when I was little.
Obviously it had a huge impact on me. Ah, [lack of] memories…
Hey Taylor,
I think you are thinking of It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (1984).
Drats I am misinformed on Christmas horror apparently. Oh well. I lost miss Horror blogosphere so maybe I will win a kindertrauma t-shirt!
I won enough stuff for this year, so I won’t post any guesses. Just wanted to say that some of those old timey christmas decorations are terrifying! Like… more so than the movies they’re in.
Some classics in this line up though. Christmas and horror is just so satisfying for some reason.
These are all from “The Greatest Story Ever Told,” right?
I’ll admit, though, I can’t really see most of these images. I’m Jewish.
I DO know the picture with Taylor is from “Mac & Me.”
Answers and winners!
OMG! YAY! Thanks!!!
I won something! And pretty much for just showing up! (I think I only got one right!) Now I know how Charlie Brown felt when he FINALLY bested that Lucy bitch and got to kick the football!
