Oh God! Oh Jesus Christ!!! It's Wonderful!!!

One of my favourite films of all time takes on a different form, for which Bleak December have done a fantastic job dramatizing the story in such a form and making it stand out in such a way. It's highly recommended to fans of the film and folk horror fans in general who'll like to experience something different, even if you're like me and you still prefer it cinematic counterpart. However, nobody will be able match the voice cast of this adaptation, especially Brian Blessed as Lord Summer Isle an odd but effective match against the late and great Christopher Lee.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
