Mark Arnold who starred alongside Michael J Fox in the classic 1985 werewolf comedy Teen Wolf, is returning to our screens in a brand-new werewolf comedy. Werewolf Santa asks, what happens when Santa Claus turns into a werewolf on Christmas Eve? Incidentally, Teen Wolf happens to be the director’s favourite eighties film!It’s being made as Christmas horror films are becoming their own established genre, and this is the film the creators have always wanted to be able to switch on after necking a couple of very large Bailey’s on Christmas Eve…Also teamed up on the project are British horror royalty Emily Booth (Tarantino’s Grindhouse) and legendary drive-in film critic, and Shudder personality, Joe Bob Briggs who has a special voice cameo on the film.
Director Airell Hayles says of the project, ‘I love Christmas horror movies, and to work with this cast on such a crazy story really is another nightmare come true, after our first three feature films also received a FrightFest screening.’
Werewolf Santa is soon to announce its distribution partner, and aspires to become an alternative holiday favourite.
