Horror Weekly News: It's a Wonderful Knife this Christmas. New Netflix thriller Locked In Trailer drop.

 

It’s that time of the year again when the festival season isn’t complete without a horror Christmas movie. This time we get to see a fun, horror take on the Christmas Classic, It’s a Wonderful Life.

Titled IT’S A WONDERFUL KNIFE, prepare for blood splatters and an elusive serial killer going through all the residents in town. While the title suggests that the killer would be using a knife, in the recently released trailer, we get to see him wielding an axe. 

In the trailer, Mayor Waters is greeting Angel Falls at the Christmas Tree lighting ceremony. Everyone seems happy and the town sure is idyllic. 

However, when a young woman is kissing her boyfriend and realizes he tastes weird, we find out that the hapless chap has been stabbed and the girlfriend has been tasting his blood. 

The serial killer is dressed as an angel. One of the residents of Angel Falls, and our protagonist, Winnie, manages to not only strike the serial killer but also electrocute him. 

She has saved Angel Falls after the killer is revealed to be none of than Mayor Waters. 

But Winnie isn’t happy with her life and facing a personal dilemma. Frustrated by her life, she blurts out that everyone would be better off if she was never born. 

Just like in It’s A Wonderful Life, Winnie gets a chance to learn how everyone would cope if she was indeed not part of their lives. What Winnie has forgotten is that she was solely responsible for bringing down the serial killer. 

And so when the Angel strikes again, Winnie realizes she must take him down again. The problem is, Mayor Waters is just so well-liked by everyone. He’s all smiles and support. 

Just why is he killing then? And will Winnie manage to take him down again? 

It’s A Wonderful Knife appears to be the perfect holiday movie for horror fans and definitely appealing. 

The movie is written by Michael Kennedy, and stars Jane Widdop, Joel McHale, and Justin Long. 

Directed by Tyler MacIntyre, IT’S A WONDERFUL KNIFE releases on November 10th.
