‘Alien Xmas’: Stop Motion Netflix Special from the Chiodo Bros Coming Down the Chimney in November!
As fans of the Chiodo Bros. (Killer Klowns from Outer Space) may be aware, they released a book back in 2015 titled Alien Xmas, and they’ve been hard at work on turning the tale into a stop-motion animated Christmas special for Netflix. Today we’ve learned that the 40-minute special, directed by Stephen Chiodo, will be coming to Netflix on November 20!
Here’s hoping a trailer is coming down the chimney real soon.
The film is executive produced by Jon Favreau (Elf).
“When a race of kleptomaniac aliens attempts to steal Earth’s gravity in order to more easily take everything on the planet, only the gift-giving spirit of Christmas and a small alien named X can save the world.”
The book was written by Stephen Chiodo & Jim Strain and illustrated by Charles Chiodo.
Following in the wake of Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse getting their own horror movies, Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid is the next to get the twisted treatment.
Originally published in 1837, the original tale of The Little Mermaid is now in the public domain, and MSR Media International presents their own horror version of the tale this year.
The Little Mermaid is being distributed by Grindstone Entertainment Group, and the film has officially been rated “R” this week for “Language, some violence and brief nudity.”
In the film from director Leigh Scott, “Dr. Eric Prince, an archaeologist, makes a dramatic discovery on a small Caribbean island—proof of an ancient, advanced prehistoric society. While his dig is in progress, he meets the mysterious and beautiful Aurora Bey and falls in love. Her arrival coincides with several mermaid sightings and strange disappearances.
“When Eric’s friend and mentor, Dr. Ashley, arrives on the island, Ashley uncovers the true identity of Aurora and the dangers of the hidden evil inside Eric’s dig site. Will Eric heed his friend’s advice, or will he be blinded by love and the power of the siren, allowing the world to fall to the forces of evil?”
Lydia Helen, Mike Markoff and Jeff Denton star in The Little Mermaid.
You can watch the trailer now over on MSR Media International’s website.
