When I saw that there was a movie coming out called Christmas with the Kringles, I thought it was going to be another happy holiday movie.
However, when the trailer said it was coming out during Halloween, I knew I was mistaken, even though it stars Ron Livingston, Rachel Bilson, Rob Riggle, Arden Myrin, Donald Faison, and Thomas Lennon.
The story follows the Seversons, a family starting fresh in a quiet suburban neighborhood, whose next-door neighbors, the Kringles, celebrate Christmas year-round.
What begins as charming quickly turns unsettling, as Mark and Julie grow concerned about their son’s growing attachment to the family. After a heated confrontation, Mark heads next door to bring his family home, only to uncover the Kringles’ true intentions: to hypnotize and indoctrinate them.
What follows is a life-or-death rescue mission, as Mark teams up with a rogue, badass Santa in a high-stakes, action-packed fight to save his family.
The future Hallomas classic will be trickling into movie theaters starting on October 30th.
