THE NAUGHTY LIST OF MR. SCROOGE

Cinemavixion Review

Jake Helgren's "The Naughty List of Mr. Scrooge" plunges viewers into a chilling reunion, fifteen years after a tragic incident marred a college production of "A Christmas Carol." The premise is ripe for suspense: former friends gather at a secluded winter chalet, only to be systematically targeted by a sinister figure embodying the vengeful spirit of Ebenezer Scrooge. The film weaves a tale of past regrets and present terror, as the characters grapple with the resurfacing of a long-buried trauma. Helgren skillfully builds an atmosphere of dread, where the cozy facade of the chalet quickly crumbles under the weight of escalating paranoia and violence. The ensemble cast delivers performances that capture the complex dynamics of old friendships strained by guilt and fear. "The Naughty List of Mr. Scrooge" offers a dark, modern twist on festive horror, exploring how unresolved guilt can manifest into a deadly present.
