Unholy Night

About This Movie

So, Unholy Night is this wild blend of holiday cheer and horror that flips the family gathering trope on its head. You’ve got Gino trying to keep the peace during what should be a warm Christmas Eve, but, surprise! His late grandmother shows up, and things go south pretty quickly. The film leans heavily into practical effects; there’s a rawness that makes the gore stand out. The pacing is a bit uneven but keeps you guessing what kind of relative might pop up next. Themes of family, the past haunting the present, and a twisted take on holiday spirit tie it all together, making it a unique entry in the horror genre.

Unholy Night is somewhat of an obscure title in the horror community, often overlooked but definitely worth discussing among collectors. There are limited formats available, mainly on DVD, and it seems to pop up infrequently at conventions or online. The scarcity has led to a growing interest, especially among those who appreciate offbeat holiday horror; if you’re into the genre, it’s likely to become a talking point among fellow collectors.
