The Grinch goes on a brutal killing spree in the official trailer for the Christmas horror movie, TheMeanOne. David Howard Thornton, best-known for playing Art the Clown in the Terrifier movies, is leading the cast.
After having stolen Christmas, The Grinch is back and going on a killing spree in The Mean One trailer. The Christmas horror movie brings a slasher twist to Dr. Seuss' iconic holiday-hating character, with the titular creature terrorizing the sleepy mountain town of Newville around the December season.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY With just over a week remaining until it hits theaters, director Steven LaMorte has taken to his YouTube account to share the official The Mean One trailer. The video offers the first proper look at the upcoming Christmas horror movie, introducing audiences to heroine Cindy-You-Know-Who as she seeks revenge on The Grinch for killing her parents as a child and stopping the humbug in the middle of his killing spree.
While these films have become viral talking points online, it will be interesting to see if it translates to box office success for The Mean One and its counterparts. Considering the divisive reaction to putting horrific twists on characters audiences grew up loving, they could find themselves flopping in their theatrical releases should some feel a desire to boycott them all and shut down this new trend.
With The Mean One slated for an early December release, it has a lot riding on its shoulders with whether it helps or hurts the horror genre's 2022 box office run.
