I will be posting Christmas-themed horror films over the next 24 days of LosMas; for the fourteenth night, I am posting the 2019 slasher The Nights Before Christmas.
The Nights Before Christmas (2019)
Dir- Paul Tanter
A sequel to the 2017 movie Once Upon a Time at Christmas picks up a year later as the killer Claus tracks down his estranged daughter, who escaped his clutches. Along the way, a team of FBI agents is trying to catch the murderous duo before Santa can finish his naughty hit list. Paul Tanter directs this sequel that returns Simon Phillips and Sayla de Goede as the killer couple while recasting most of the surviving cast from the first movie. The sequel is the usual slasher fare that only excels when Phillips and Goede are on screen as everyone else fails to stand out. Sayla de Goede certainly makes an impressive impression of Harley Quinn and is probably the best character in the series. Director Paul Tanter's effort pays off as both movies make a killer combo for the holiday season.
