There's a sequel, and a few years ago on Christmas Eve I rented it and had a bunch of my family watch it at my cousin's house. They were mostly drunk, and we had a great time. |
I'll have my article on the sequel up hopefully by the end of the week if all goes well. The Jack Frost movies really are a lot of fun, especially if you're watching them with people who have a decent sense of humor.

He begins to assume the role of Santa, keeping a list of naughty boys and girls in the neighborhood. He is eventually driven to kill some especially naughty people, setting him off on a murder spree. From what I remember he doesn't really kill any kids, mostly parents. And the ending is wonderfully absurd.

Haven't seen that one, but it sounds pretty damned good... and Troma is always amusing to some extent. Gotta love the box art for it too:

Saw the first and second ones. The first one was ok... the second one I don't even really remember in all honesty. I think the only reason I ever saw the first one was because the box had Santa going down the chimney with an axe... and by god that looked COOL to my teenage arse.

I'm sure there are, but I can't really think of any memorable ones that I've seen. I'd definitely be interested in seeing some "definitive list of xmas-themed horror flicks" though if anybody would like to share.
