Horror Movie Review: Psycho Santa 2 (2021)
The signs all point to something as crap as the first Psycho Santa, but that’s such a low-bar, surely Psycho Santa 2 could be better by default. Spoilers, it is, marginally.

From writer and director Blake Riddler comes the festive horror short, Santa for Hire. It stars Sarah Alexandra Marks, Louis James, Jeffery Louis Salkilld, and Teddy Wynne.
From director Conrad Craven, and writers Felicia Lamb and Denise Mone’t comes Black Santa. A dark and grim festive horror movie that stars Turell Robins.
It’s the final single slam of the year, and as tradition, this one features singles with a festive spin released over the past few weeks. This Christmas single slam features Marty Friedman, Vantablack Warship, Orion’s Reign, Forlesen, Quicksilver Night, The Shredderz, From Ashes to New, Sullvation, King of Cups, Disconnected Souls, Corners of Sanctuary, EELS, and The Dollyrots.
Santa Isn’t Real, right? That’s the question writer and director Zac Locke asks with his new holiday slasher horror movie.
One of the more extensive anthology films, even more so when you take the festive spin into account, 13 Slays Till X-Mas is an enjoyable trawl though the minds of multiple writers and directors, with twelve stories overall, and a wraparound that connects everything up nicely.
If you’re after a dark tale based around depression and its effects, and don’t mind the slow-burn of a psychological horror, all with Christmas as a backdrop, then Splinter is worth a watch.
Written and directed by Craig-James Moncur, this is a festive horror short to make you wary of ending up under the mistletoe in future.
