The unofficial Grinch slasher parody TheMeanOne gets a new poster showing the Grinch ready to slash through the snow, and a December release date.
There's just over a month left until Christmas and the Grinch is getting ready to go slashing through the snow in the unofficial slasher parody The Mean One. Atlas Film Distribution revealed that the absurd horror flick featuring Art the Clown himself, David Howard Thornton , as the classic Dr. Seuss character will arrive with plenty of time to rack up some kills before the big day. Along with the release of a chilling new poster, the film is now set to reach theaters on December 9.
The Mean One marks the fourth adaptation of the classic Dr. Seuss holiday tale, though this iteration of the Grinch is the meanest and greenest he's ever been. Directed by Bury Me Twice helmer Steven LaMorte, the film takes place in the little town of Newville where a green monster lurks menacingly in his home in the mountains above. Every holiday season, the beast dons a red Santa suit and pays a visit to the village to wreak havoc among its citizens.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The official poster turns the holiday icon into a twisted mockery of what everyone knows. Brandishing a butcher knife with his screaming victim's reflection shining in it, he has his traditional red suit and hat on for the holidays. His trademark wide, sinister grin is still barely visible from behind the knife.
The Mean One is the latest in a line of children's-media-gone-horror that's been cropping up repeatedly in recent years. Previously, The Banana Splits came back with The Banana Splits Movie which had the cuddly band of animal rock stars becoming a gang of animatronic killers for a horror comedy. Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey has also made waves ahead of its release next year for the sheer absurdity of transforming Pooh, the adorably innocent bear from E. H. Shepherd and A. A.
We're still waiting on a trailer for The Mean One. With only a couple of weeks left until its December 9 release, a look at the film beyond the newly released poster could be coming very soon.

Number One in Formula OneToto Wolff, the team principal for Mercedes-AMG Petronas—arguably the most impressive team in F1 racing history—has led his organization to unparalleled success. Mercedes earned the Constructors’ Championship (for best overall team performance) every year from 2014 through 2021, and over that time frame it won nearly 70% of the Grand Prix races it competed in. To understand what made that possible, Harvard Business School’s Anita Elberse spent time with the team in 2021, conducting interviews and watching what went on behind the scenes before, during, and after races. She found that Wolff shapes the culture at Mercedes to a remarkable degree. Elberse’s takeaway? What you say and do as a leader has a surprisingly powerful effect on the organization you run. In this article, drawing on her observations of Wolff’s management style and practices, Elberse presents six lessons that can help any leader cultivate a winning team: (1) Set the highest standards for everyone; (2) put people front and center; (3) analyze mistakes continually—even when winning; (4) foster an open, no-blame culture; (5) trust superstars but maintain authority; and (6) relentlessly battle complacency.
