CHRISTMAS EVIL

Lewis Jackson is a director and writer, known for The Deviates (1970), The Transformation: A Sandwich of Nightmares (1974), and particularly Christmas Evil (1980). Jackson worked for years on the script for Christmas Evil and envisioned a mainstream, big-budget movie. While Hollywood liked his finished script, they felt the concept was just too strange. Jackson credits Waters with both the picture’s revival and his own re-embracing of the project, which was nearly forgotten from canonical film history.
