French holiday horror The Advent Calendar gets a trailer from Shudder

November 19, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

Shudder has released a trailer and images for the French holiday horror The Advent Calendar from writer-director Patrick Ridremont, which follows Eva (Eugenie Derouand), a former dancer now unable to walk who receives an antique advent calendar hiding both pleasant and terrifying surprises behind each window, with real life repercussions.

Eva (Eugénie Derouand, Paris Police 1900), an ex-dancer, is now using a wheelchair, unable to walk. When her friend Sophie (Honorine Magnier, Tomorrow is Ours) gives her an old wooden antique advent calendar before Christmas, she realises each window contains a surprise that triggers repercussions in real life. Some of them are good, but most of them are bad, really bad. Now Eva will have to choose between getting rid of the calendar or walking again – even if it causes death and destruction to everyone she holds dear around her.
