Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for slasher fans and people who start the Christmas movies early. Classic slasher set-up: count who's left standing. Fans of Terrifier 3 should feel right at home. Made to be watched with the tree lit.
- The mood
- Scary and gory.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 44 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
- It's in Norwegian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not ideal if you just want to unwind.
Christmas Blood is a thriller-slasher about a feared serial killer, called Nissen, who has struck Norway's countryside every Christmas Eve for over 13 years. Investigators Rasch and Hansen are trying to solve the riddle before he returns. This time it appears that it is northern Norway that will face Nissen's bloodbath.
