AKA: Bugs
Brian Yuzna steps in as director in a sequel that bears little resemblance to the previous three films (no guys in Santa suits here). It represents a clean break from the series, similar to Season of the Witch. In fact, this one also deals with witches, as a journalist investigates a bizarre burning incident, leading her on a dark odyssey. Even though it has some cool, grody Cronenberg-esque special effects, it's clear the script was repurposed and Christmas seems to be an afterthought. It's so bizarre and nonsensical, it's to be admired, really.
