Natale: lista di 100+ film horror natalizi

In occasione del Natale, l’Internet Horror Movie Database (iHORRORdb) ha reso disponibile la lista dei 100 film horror sul Natale e che potete visualizzare tramite questo link: Christmas Horror Movies. Nel sito, tra l’altro, sono presenti le schede complete di ogni titolo, corredate da cast, crew, still, trailer e locandine. Che siano prettamente incentrati sul Natale, sulla vigilia o sulle vacanze natalizie, i film che sono stati scelti, low budget o meno, offrono una visione distorta, malsana e violenta del 25 dicembre o dei giorni che precedono tale festività.

Non mancano le commedie horror e film come Gremlins, la saga slasher horror Silent Night, Deadly Night o i più classici come Black Christmas di Bob Clark e il remake a cura di Glen Morgan, o ancora Racconti dalla tomba (Tales from the Crypt) del 1972. A questi si aggiungono titoli meno noti, amatoriali o indipendenti, oppure anche film in post-produzione. La lista inoltre raccoglie non solo lungometraggi e cortometraggi ma anche i segmenti di celebri serie TV come Racconti di mezzanotte (Tales from the Crypt) del 1989 con l’episodio “È attraverso tutta la casa” e da cui è tratta l’immagine qui a destra (Larry Drake nei panni di uno psicopatico travestito da Babbo Natale).

Non potevano mancare i diversi film sui Krampus come Krampus: The Christmas Devil,
Krampus – Natale non è sempre Natale, A Christmas Horror Story, Krampus Unleashed, Mother Krampus, Krampus Origins, Krampus: The Devil Returns e tanti altri.
