The Making of a Horror Film is a curious peek behind the curtain of Don't Open Til Christmas. It captures that gritty, DIY vibe of 80s horror filmmaking that's hard to replicate today. The pacing feels a bit erratic, but that’s part of the charm, really. You get to see how they pulled off some of those practical effects – some are gnarly and others, well, let’s just say they had limited budgets. The atmosphere is thick with that classic horror grit, and the interviews with the crew give a raw, unfiltered look at the challenges they faced. You can sense the passion, the frustration, and maybe a little bit of madness in bringing this project to life. It’s rare to see such an honest look at the chaos behind making a horror flick.
