Short Film Review: "My Name is Kris Kringle"


This five-minute short, written and directed by Drew Daywalt, premiered on the Fangoria website today.  In a nutshell: the eponymous perp is apprehended leaving a crime scene and brought to a police interrogation room, where he must answer for his bloody holiday deeds.  The special effects here are something of an oxymoron, and the acting--save for R.A. Mihailoff (Hatchet 2, Dark House) as the cleaver-wielding Kringle--is pedestrian, but the film does offer a nice bit of yuletide fear.  The moral of this story, kiddies, is that you better be good--for your own sake.
