The Grinch horror parody The Mean One is a twisted festive offering
. Slashing into cinemas ahead of that movie though is another take on a beloved family favourite: the Grinch.is technically a horror parody of that grouchy creature, but you won't hear the name anywhere. The creature in the new movie certainly has a lot of Grinch features – namely the green design and, of course, the hatred of Christmas – but this is a totally unauthorised take on the character.
However, some aspects of this – particularly the characters and the schmaltzy script and setting – are also kind of the point. As well as being a horror parody of, the movie sends up classic Hallmark and Lifetime festive movies, so of course there's a cheesy romance.The Mean One is a twisted festive treat – or a cinematic lump of coal. But one thing's for sure, you won't find another Christmas movie where the Grinch slaughters a bar-full of drunk Santas on their way back from SantaCon.that you could tear apart quicker than opening your favourite presents. One aspect that deserves zero criticism though is David Howard Thornton's excellent performance as the central creature.
