New ITVX series called 'Christmas' is a highly praised horror show during the holiday season.
If you're a fan of horror and looking for a new series to sink your teeth into, look no further. The chilling and seductive NOS4A2, starring Zachary Quinto, has just arrived on UK TV and is the perfect late-night watch this festive season.

Based on the novel by Joe Hill, the show follows the immortal Charlie Manx, who feeds off the souls of children before trapping them in a twisted Christmas-themed village. But his world is turned upside down when Vic McQueen discovers she has the power to unlock portals to lost objects. The two become sworn enemies, putting Charlie's existence in jeopardy.

Now available on ITVX, the series boasts 20 episodes for viewers to delve into. Alongside Quinto, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, known for his role in The Bear, plays Vic's beloved blue-collar father. With the show even receiving praise from horror legend Stephen King, it's no surprise that it has received rave reviews since its release on AMC in 2019.

According to Decider, Quinto and co-star Ashleigh Cummings give fantastic performances, and the show has a prestige TV sheen that leaves viewers wanting more. For horror lovers, this is the perfect festive season watch, with Vulture magazine calling it "chilling" and "prestige TV."

But don't just take our word for it. Fans on Twitter have also been raving about the show, with one declaring it the "golden series of the century." With a respectable 72% on Rotten Tomatoes, it's clear that NOS4A2 is a hit with both critics and audiences.

In an interview with Nerdophiles.com, author Joe Hill explained his inspiration for merging Christmas themes with horror. "Everyone loves Christmas carols, but if you're lost in the woods and come across a rundown house playing those same carols, it's all kinds of wrong," he said. This is where the terrifying Christmasland comes into play in the show.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who plays Vic's father Chris, also shared his thoughts on playing such a complex character. "It's interesting to play a guy who would take a bullet for his kid but can't figure out how to stop drinking," he said. "But none of that gets in the way of his love for his child."

As we enter the new year, ITVX has plenty of new shows to offer, including all seven seasons of Buffy The Vampire Slayer from January 2025. But for now, you can catch the first two seasons of NOS4A2 streaming on ITVX.
