XYZ Films has announced that they have picked up the ‘Grinch as a slasher’ parody “The Mean One” for a release this December 15th in the United States.
The story follows The Mean One (Terrifier 2’s David Howard Thornton), a hairy, green-skinned grump in a Santa suit, living on a mountain high above the town of Newville, despising the holiday season.
Young Cindy You-Know-Who (Krystle Martin), whose parents were butchered by The Mean One twenty Christmases earlier, is returning to town to seek closure… but is about to discover that this fiend with a heart two sizes to small is still quite eager to carve the roast beast.
Chase Mullins, John Bigham, Erik Baker, Flip Kobler, and Amy Schumacher co-star. Steven LaMorte directs from a script by Flip and Finn Kobler with the film to be available free everywhere on that date.
