I Slay On Christmas

Christmas, the most wonderful time of the year!

And in some ways that is true because what other time of the year do you get to see family when everyone is busy with work, school or having seizures from the latest news of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? I personally enjoy Christmas dinner where i can enjoy lots of food, have some brännvin ( like moonshine, the Swedish version ) and end up in a snow wrestling fight with your annoying neighbors. That´s the kind of Christmas i want every year, no family drama just have some fun instead. We have plenty of stress all over the year anyway so we definetely need a break now and then. Speaking about Christmas i am not the biggest fan of romantic Christmas films at all. Most of them look exactly the same and the plot seems to be written in 3 minutes. This is why i prefer to turn towards Christmas horror movies instead because they actually show the true meaning of Christmas. This is where it is ok to split your Uncle´s head with an axe or chop off your Post office workers arm because he delivered your letters late. There are so many wonderful Christmas horror movies to choose between and it might be difficuly knowing what title to choose. I would personally recommend the Christmas horror anthology movie A Christmas Horror Movie from 2015. This film have different Christmas stories from 3 different director´s and manage to bring the stories together in a surprisingly charming way. I actually enjoy all of the stories in this film for different reasons, but to see Santa Clause ( George Buza ) fight against Krampus is definetely a highlight. We even have legendary Star Trek actor William Shatner in this film as radio host DJ Dan. If you love anthology horror films you should definetely pick up A Christmas Horror Story on DVD or Blu Ray. Recently i sat down to go through new Christmas horor movies that have been released this year so far and decided to watch a film called I Slay On Christmas. The title itself seemed to be exactly something in my taste, since that´s exactly what i do when we bring out the Christmas Turkey and cut it up with an electric saw. A Christmas anthology film with several stories, could this be the horror film to watch this holiday of is it possible I Slay On Christmas is just as bad as The Island Boys ( rap pop? ) singles?

Different Christmas stories where each pine cone found in the forest tells a story for each one you touch. It will be a Christmas like no other, that you will most likely never forget.

If you have been worried that we won´t have any new Christmas movie to enjoy this year i can tell you that you have nothing to fear. I Slay On Christmas is exactly what we need this time of the year, a cheesy splatter tribute to the VHS violence era with lots of kills and naked women as well. It is almost as if they made this film knowing that Extreme Radical Swedish Feminists would go insane that this film does exist and for that i am very thankful. In many ways you could say that I Slay On Christmas have certain elements of inspiration of the 1984 classic Silent Night, Deadly Night without Santa Claus as the main character. The axe as a murder weapon is here and the Christmas spirit is also here as well. When you combine those two details together you know it´s a perferct holiday season for the whole family. When it comes to acting in a low budget film such as this one you know that it will be on a limited quality level. Let us begin with the most fun character and the greatest acting performance in this film as well. And this is where we find actor Joel D. Wynkpoop as the crazy character known as Drudge. Imagine the following combination of Tourette Guy on YouTube and a more pissed off version of Homer Simpson and this would describe the character of Drudge pretty good. When he really goes insane that´s where this film becomes almost like a satire of a serial killer. I Slay On Christmas tries to tell different stories where some of the stories works pretty good, but we also have a pretty weak segment as well. I personally enjoy the segment known as " Christmas Revenge ". Santa Claus here in this segment played by actor A.J. Laird gives a matching performance, the kind of Santa you would want to visit before Christmas dinner. So any problems with this film? Of course this is a very limited budget film and all the practical effects may not be perfect. Some of the acting from some actors are terrible as well. But i can accept this since i know this is meant to be an entertaining Christmas anthology horror film that doesn´t take itself too seriously. There are 5 directors in this film and the one i recognize mostly is of course Phil Herman, director of the Horrortales 666 Part 2 & 3. I think director Derek Braasch did the best segment of this film called Christmas Revenge where the practical effects work better than in the previous segments. Overall i would say that I Slay On Christmas is a fun anthology horror film if you don´t have a problem with low budget horror. Need something to watch this Christmas that doesn´t include a sparkling Hallmark production impact? Then i have a feeling that I Slay On Christmas might be what you are looking for.
