Between Tales of Halloween and Michael Dougherty’s Krampus, there’s no shortage of holiday-themed anthologies.
The next comes courtesy of indie production and sales outfit XYZ Films, who is teaming with John Hegeman’s newly-launched genre label, Distant Corners Entertainment, to produce feature anthology, Holidays.
Deadline reports that the pic is a group of subversive tales fashioned around globally recognized celebrations like Christmas, Easter, Halloween and Mother’s Day.
Other than the addition of Starry Eyes duo Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch, the band of directors isn’t as exciting. In fact, it’s almost a turnoff.
The other vignettes will be helmed by the god awful Kevin Smith, responsible for trash such as Tusk and Red State; Gary Shore, who helmed the bland soulless Dracula Untold, will tell a story; Then there’s Scott Stewart, director of the scare-less and lackluster Dark Skies; other directors include The Pact‘s Nick McCarthy, Matt Johnson (The Dirties), Sarah Smith (The Midnight Swim), and Anthony Scott Burns. More directors will be announced in the coming weeks.
