With Hollywood and horror favourites, Kevin Smith, Nicholas McCarthy, Gary Shore and Seth Green on board, among many others, Holidays is a portmanteau horror which challenges our perception of annual festivities, subverting them and laying their darker side bare.

From a seriously bloody Valentine to an extremely gruesome Easter and a Christmas slay ride for good measure, Holidays is an anthology horror that puts a grisly twist on some of our most beloved seasonal events.

From an extremely gruesome Easter to a disturbingly macabre Valentine’s Day, Holidays is a portmanteau horror unlike any other: exploring a full calendar year of grisly festive stories, and bringing out the most twisted and subversive sides of each seasonal celebration.

With stellar directorial talent, including Kevin Smith (Tusk), Gary Shore (Dracula Untold), Scott Stewart (Dark Skies), Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer (Starry Eyes), Sarah Adina Smith (The Midnight Swim), Nicholas McCarthy (The Pact), Adam Egypt Mortimer (Some Kind of Hate), and Anthony Scott Burns (Darknet), join some of the brightest minds in the most sinister genre, as they lead you on a series of deviously dark, spine-chilling thrill-rides.

It’s rare to find the writers, directors and stars of so many hit films in one place and being given such free reign to make something that offers so many moments of fun and fright, ranging from dark comedy to gore.

Hotly celebrated by the horror community since its premiere at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival, and with horror anthologies on the ascendency thanks to the resurgence of quality portmanteau films such as Southbound and V/H/S, Holidays is a joy for horror fans with its inspired, self-contained holiday tales of fear.

Each segment manages to feel like a carefully crafted film in it’s own right, not just a quick terror tale to satisfy the requirements of the anthology’s overall theme, making it much more in the style of classics such as Tales From the Crypt.

Nicholas McCarthy’s “Easter” segment has particularly stood out in early reviews. After 2012’s The Pact, we knew he had the horror chops to leave us completely and utterly terrified, but “Easter” is getting such plaudits that some of the online horror community are calling for it to be transformed into a film in its own right thanks to its brilliant monster and strong performances.

“As a showcase for both some of the genre’s strongest talent and the many transgressive possibilities inherent in its subject, Holidays is a gift horror fans will be happy to open.” Fangoria

“Enjoy unwrapping this slice of gleefully absurd holiday Hell” We Got This Covered

“... unlike most family gatherings where stragglers hang around far too long or Uncle Steve initiates a rebellion with a tirade over his unhealthy sports obsession, Holidays is deliciously wicked fun.” The Hollywood Outsider
