Late Nite Grindhouse Presents ‘DON’T OPEN TILL CHRISTMAS’ at Marcus Des Peres 14 Cine on December 9 & 10

Our final movie of our 2022 season is upon us. Over the past 12 years, we’ve shown most of the holiday horror films for our program but this is one title that we haven’t been able to show due to available elements to show this film theatrically. Don’t Open Till Christmas is a film that landed on the UK’s infamous Video Nasty list.

From the producers of “PIECES” and “FRIDAY THE 13TH”.

SYNOPSIS

Whatever you do, DON’T OPEN TILL CHRISTMAS. An unsung 1980s holiday slayride from the makers of PIECES, this unhinged slasher follows a psychopath as they slaughter anyone who’s unlucky enough to be dressed like Santa Claus during the holiday season. The twisted maniac dishes out stabbings, gunshots, a castration (!), and even burns the face of a poor Saint Nick while he’s roasting chestnuts. A fascinating and endlessly entertaining sleazefest, DON’T OPEN TILL CHRISTMAS is infamous for its shocking gore scenes and gratuitous synth-jam performance from horror icon Caroline Munro (DRACULA A.D. 1972, MANIAC). Newly restored from the original 35mm camera negative!
