Santa's Slay | In Praise of Shadows: Darksides

Internet Rule 5

[@TheStardustConspiracy]

Love these short formatted videos!!

[@michaelking7847]

Well Santas Slay certainly wasn't the Christmas horror movie I would've expected to get IPOS coverage, but I'm glad it was. It's going on my watch list

[@FurbyFullyLoaded]

If I had a nickel for every time James Caan was in a winter horror movie I’d have 2 nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.

[@Blarmenify]

@CthulhusBFF2 bsides this what other holiday horror film was james Caan in? Unless you're counting Elf, which is in fact a nightmare of a film.

[@jbscott6813]

This Chanel’s format feels nostalgic to your older videos, which I love. It really carries that comfort I’d have re watching those videos but keeps it alive in its own way. I enjoy all of the short videos coming out, and I Joel you have a happy holiday!

[@IPOSDarksides]

Thanks so much! I'm glad folks have been saying that about these because they very much are intended to be a back to basics kind of thing for me. I've had a lot of fun making them and am honestly kind of thrilled at the idea of having a lot more shorter projects like this that will keep things fun for me. Thanks again!

[@Thunderbull]

Love Christmas-themed horror so much.

[@stxplesexhaustion]

Happy Holidays! Im loving these videos and I hope your doing well

[@talesfromiDEATH]

This film follows the one rule every film like this should. If you've got a wrestler in your film, have him hit his finisher!

[@patrickjohnson1649]

But we didn’t see Zeus use a Neck Snap.

[@AdaraFukuchi]

Uncanny santa is my new fave trope. I rlly liked violent night and fat man as well. I think ill be checking this one out this christmas!

[@doomguy234]

Ah I love holiday horror

[@sneakybug9828]

I cant even find your main channel when I type it in. I expect the same for this one soon

[@ThatDangBee]

Yall are pathetic, still going at it.

[@zachrion]

[@KimFromTheCrypt]

i demand a 7 hour Terrifier video when they finished the series

[@IPOSDarksides]

When they finish it up I do plan on doing a franchise video on it for sure, I've come around on them a bit since I made that first clown video. I'm still not 100% on board but I do like a lot of stuff they've been doing with them. 2 is by far my favorite with them.

[@KimFromTheCrypt]

@@IPOSDarksides awesome! yeah i found 1 to be fun but a bit iffy. 2 immediately won me over though, which led me down a path of binging interviews and becoming a super fan. yeah 3 tops it again with the shock, gore and comedy but i love the pacing and all the character moments in 2 more. although i love the story and character stuff we did get in 3, it def feels like it was cut for runtime. hoping for the directors cut that Damien teased in that regard

[@Blarmenify]

One if my favourite holiday flix

[@orwellianson]

Always a great day when you make a new video, Zane! :)

[@PIB2000]

With a Silent Night, Deadly Night remake on it's way for next year, would you ever consider doing a video about that series?

[@IPOSDarksides]

Yeah! At some point I will do a franchise video about them for sure.

[@april-bloom]

Great video as always :3

[@DamningTooth1]

7:20 is this a hint for your upcoming analysis on Moonfall? 🌒 👀

[@blossomentrails3398]

This is one of my all time favorite movies I’m so happy to see you cover it

[@blossomentrails3398]

Would you ever consider covering the Jack Frost films?

[@IPOSDarksides]

Yeah! Next week on the main channel I've got a franchise video for both of them.

[@adep4270]

@@blossomentrails3398what a coincidence

[@steppecist]

when are you going to apologise to wendigoon, oompaville etc.

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

He apologized to Wendigoon privately and Brandon Buckingham as well (and semi-publicly in a comment reply to him)

[@zenbrandon]

These little editorials on smaller films are fantastic. I'd love to hear your thoughts about horror novels on this channel! Since they don't have enough content for a long-form video, generally speaking

[@IPOSDarksides]

Thanks! I've got several of these scripts for horror novels to be made for here and plan on doing a lot of videos like that. I just don't have a dedicated on camera setup yet for Darksides. Once I do expect a lot more coverage on books and movies that are still in theaters.

[@uumanebs]

You're not welcome in this space, Zane.

[@Ryan-bw3eb]

Do you like Black Christmas 1974? I watch it and Christmas Evil every Christmas Eve

[@IPOSDarksides]

I do! Christmas Evil is one of this month's Darksides actually, it is so good. But yeah, I really like 70's stuff and Black Chrismas kills

[@-loveless-]

In Praise of Shadows has a long history of inappropriate interactions with minors. Im surprised he is still allowed a platform.

[@ThatDangBee]

Lmfao, yall are pathetic really.

[@theendisthebeginningistheend]

@@-loveless- It's culturally believed to be true.

[@Mrsierramist1]

This is one I never got around to watching. I may do so this year.

[@LiteBees]

So glad to see this movie covered here! It may not be a masterpiece, but I don't think it's ever boring, its a fun little thing to put on during a party if you want your guests going "did that just happen?"

[@JasonBeam7]

Keep up the great work!

[@taddsche]

I love this awful movie. I am so glad you covered it. I am also glad that I can point someone to a review of it that doesn't have a very questionable presenter, again.

[@angryclown1990]

Dude, I love this movie. I remember years ago trying to tell some friends about this film and they didn't believe me

[@edgymacarthur1392]

Stop talking. Im serious, just stop talking. Stop making videos, stop posting online, stop sharing your views. You have 0 right to air out any thoughts you have online after what you've done.

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

Shut up and move on

[@coolio7807]

Hiding on this channel won’t help bud

[@DantheManIamIam]

I used to hate this movie. Thought it was cheap and witless and a waste of everyone’s time. Watching this video makes me realize that we used to have a higher grade of slop. In the age of the likes of Blood and Honey this feels like a super passionate five star production. Truly I once took the bare minimum for granted. Heck, even at the time I was probably a little too mean. As far as budget horror starring wrestlers go, I’m pretty sure this would have come out around the same time as See No Evil, and…woof.

[@lucillelovesnegan2144]

Dancing around criticism isn't an apology bro

[@kylewashburn5840]

He doesn't have room apologi,e for being correct

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

Let the drama go, dawg. Wendigoon and Brandon have talked things out with him and they forgive him

[@alexwilson2227]

you will never get the viewership you once had. you blew it big time. youre so delusional that you probably dont even think you did anything wrong.

[@davidalnwick]

I'm leaving a comment here about your 'Clearing the air' video because the comment section on that was pretty wild. Good on you man, I've watched for a few years now and you make damn excellent media criticism (or however you'd prefer to frame it). I appreciate this comment is a grain of sand, but from this one guys perspective you came across as your authentic self, and that's the best a person can ever hope to do. It's a shitty situation to want/need to publicly address anything negative about oneself or ones actions, but you did it well. Hats off to you. I hope you keep making damn good videos forever dude.

[@theendisthebeginningistheend]

@@davidalnwick He did not do it well. Stop glazing him.

[@zachrion]

He made up and perpetuated lies about ppl that were more popular than him, this is pathetic

[@DrZ.Zalost0000fansuxZrules]

@@zachrion then he owned up to it by apologising to them and taking it down. Unlike him, all the people like you who can't let it go or are just here to be psychos are the actual pathetic ones

Remember when you said all people in Appalachia are racist?

[@april-bloom]

Remember when you were a free thinker?

[@kiet10]

@@MandyMan24 Get over some asshole horribly mischaracterizing a region's population based on their location and stereotypes? Hm, judging a large group of people sorta like.....a racist? Yeah I'll get over it when he can learn to act like a damn adult and apologize properly. Otherwise, you can get over people having an issue with him.
