The Advent Calendar
Directed by Patrick Ridremont
Eva has been paraplegic for the past three years. When her birthday arrives, she receives a strange advent calendar as a gift. But instead of the traditional sweets, every day reveals something different; sometimes pleasant but often terrifying, and increasingly bloody. It’s going to be a very deadly Christmas this year. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL.

She was a good actress. I like the story line also!
A disturbing and unique concept that kept me guessing. French horror can always amaze, if you choose the right ones! Likely of the best on Shudder, and I've certainly seen quite a few.
/maybe/ B-
Really enjoyed this one
I'm very picky when it comes to aesthetics, not in the specific colors or lighting they choose but in the variety overall... if a movie is too bleak or washed out, or visually one note, I have trouble finishing it... I get bored or fall asleep, or get distracted easily and stop paying attention... The poster art sort of incepted me, making me think it would be a very cold-looking movie, but it's wonderfully shot and has plenty of warm tones and set pieces breaking up the colder aspects. It has a mysterious vibe throughout, and I ended up loving it.
