‘The Boulet Brothers’ Holiday of Horrors’ Debuts Trailer, Reveals Full Cast: ‘Move Aside “It’s a Wonderful Life”‘ (EXCLUSIVE)
Drag superstars The Boulet Brothers are getting ready to spook the holiday season.
“The Boulet Brothers’ Holiday of Horrors,” their new anthology of four original shorts, will premiere on Shudder on Dec. 16. Directors include The Boulet Brothers, David Dastmalchian, Akela Cooper and Kate Siegel.
The Boulet Brothers’ “Gaudete” sees a family try to settle their grandmother’s inheritance in her home on Christmas Eve, only to find the house haunted and filled with secrets. Dastmalchian’s “Yeti or Not” tells the story of three friends who go looking for their sister in the woods, just to find something monstrous hidden in the snowy forest. Cooper’s “Old Acquaintance” takes the audience to New Year’s Eve, where a young woman inherits the demon of her recently deceased father. Finally, Siegel’s “Down the Chimney” takes a morbid twist on Santa Claus.
The casts include Bonnie Aarons, Aaron Abrams, Briana Venskus and Eloisa Huggins in “Gaudete,” Dastmalchian, Lauren LaVera, Jennifer Polania, Leah Kilpatrick and Natasha Preston in “Yeti or Not,” Tracie Thoms, Tiffany Smith, Charles Murray and Abhora in “Old Acquaintance” and Dominic Hure, Theodora Flanagan and Cody Flanagan in “Down the Chimney.”
The Boulet Brothers serve as executive producers of the project alongside Dastmalchian. “This project has been such a joy to build alongside our dear friend David and the remarkable team of filmmakers involved,” the Boulets said in a statement. “The anthology showcases four distinct visions of holiday horror and creating our own short within it gave us the chance to finally reveal the kind of scripted genre storytelling that’s closest to our hearts— moody, vicious and hauntingly beautiful. We’re thrilled for audiences to experience the entire collection and especially the dark little nightmare we’ve contributed to it.”
Dastmalchian added, “There is something inherently haunting and haunted about the holiday season. Dickens knew it. And now I get to team up with my favorite fiends, The Boulet Brothers and a host of talented creative creatures as we twist and terrorize the holiday season into something fun and fearsome. Move aside, ‘It’s a Wonderful Life,’ there’s a new holiday tradition coming to town!”
