The Nights Before Christmas

The Nights Before Christmas This movie I can definitely recommend to anyone. There isn't anything bad about this movie, really. The actors play well and the characters are built even better. I cannot express how good this is. 10/10

Wasn't unwatchably bad, but fairly bad. The actress playing "Mrs. Claus" seems to have based her character on a blend of Harley Quinn and Baby from House of 1000 Corpses and didn't come off very well at all being so blatantly obvious what she was attempting to do. The lead FBI agent was trying way too hard to pull off a "Clarice Starling" but failed miserably and seemed to be reading her lines, pretty much like most of the other actors. Story was fairly predictable but was still just okay. Seems to be pretty common with the films where the directors, producers, writers act in their films. I wouldn't recommend watching it, but I wouldn't steer you away from it either.

The Nights Before Christmas (2019) is a Canadian 🇨🇦 holiday/horror film currently available on Tubi. The story follows a couple who meet in an asylum, escape, and embark on a killing spree while posing as Mr. And Mrs. Claus. A determined detective sets out to stop their reign of terror.

Directed by Paul Tanter (Stealing Chaplin), the film stars Simon Phillips (Survive the Game), Sayla de Goede (Silent Bite), Keegan Chambers (Age of the Living Dead), and Kate Schroder (All I Didn't Want for Christmas).

Unfortunately, the film's decision to lean into a Joker-and-Harley-Quinn-inspired dynamic for Mr. And Mrs. Claus makes the writing feel derivative and uninspired. That said, Santa's menacing look is a highlight and adds a cool, sinister edge. However, the acting, writing, and dialogue feel low-budget, as do the cinematography and kill scenes. The lackluster execution of the kills is particularly disappointing, as stronger sequences could have made this a more entertaining experience.

In conclusion, The Nights Before Christmas has a few moments that work, but they're overshadowed by its flaws. I'd score this a 3.5/10 and recommend skipping it.

Not bad for a Christmas horror film! I'm excited to watch the first one now. I'm hoping there's another sequel. I think more can be explained, this was a great movie!

Mr. And Mrs. Clause have a naughty by-nature list of names. They meet personally with those on the list and send them away to their finality. Feds and police try to make a link between the events and seem like they are always several steps behind.

Nothing extraordinary happens in this sluggish slasher. As far as I could tell, not even one person or police fired a round to end Mr. & Mrs. Clauses' affairs.

In the slasher horror movie types, there are usually expectedly unexpected scenes where the element of surprise gives an advantage to the culprits whilst slashing their victims. However, it's not the case here, except for the second victim. With the cutlery in their hands, they talk and bore the victims to death.

Consequently, it is hard to buy into the story. It's just not believable.
