Christmas Horror Comes Home: Jack Frost 1 & 2 with Krampus: The Naughty Cut


This December, you might want to grab these stocking stuffers for some festive, yet horrifying, enjoyment. Special editions of Jack Frost, the murderous mutant killer snowman, 1 & 2 are out from MVD Rewind. These new Blu-rays come with a ton of extras that I'll be sharing below, but they're cute festive new covers really sell them for any horror fan you've got on your shopping list, including yourself. Other than a huge selection of extras on the Blu-rays is the inclusion of mini-posters with each film and reversible covers make these something to be sought out for Xmas.

Another special edition out this December is Krampus: The Naughty Cut which restores a few extra minutes to the film that the MPAA cut so it could reach an PG-13 rating. It comes from the fine folks of Scream Factory and it has it's own special extras. Any of these Blu-rays will brighten up a horror fans holiday, so take a look if you want something scary special for them this time of year.
