Kevin Lewis on Directing ‘Christmas at the Kringles’: Mixing Holiday Horror, Humor, and Heart

Director Kevin Lewis had a holly jolly time on the set of his new comedy-horror film “Christmas at the Kringles,” even admitting he struggled to keep a straight face during some scenes. “When I was shooting some of these scenes, it was so hard for me not to mess them up because I was busting a gut,” Lewis said. The movie blends festive frights with laugh-out-loud moments and genuine warmth, a tricky tonal balance that Lewis says was key to the project’s appeal. The cast, made up of comic ringers, helped deliver the humor while keeping the holiday spirit intact. For fans of unconventional Christmas movies, this one promises a fresh take on seasonal scares. Lewis hints he might return to the genre soon.
