He Knows

Writer and Director Steven Morris really knew how what he was doing here and it shows. Forget Silent Night, Deadly Night! THIS is high quality Christmas horror! Great acting, a unique story, great kills, and endearing characters (I'd have a beer with Gregg if it was possible, and Christina was an engaging lead character. Rooted for her all the way!) made He Knows a great genre film!

Put HE KNOWS on your Christmas list, because this film is destined to become a horror classic in the same ranks as Halloween and Nightmare On Elm Street!

9/10! Bring on the sequel and watch out for Sammy The Elf!!

The acting is subpar and the bad lighting and cinematographry takes you out of the experience. Wish the lightning was a little more cinematic because with some the lighting it looked a bad YouTube skit

It feels super cheesy so if that's what they were going for they hit the nail on the head.

Audio was really good so that's a plus. If they audio wasn't great I wouldn't of made it all the way through. The music to voice lines could use some better balancing out.

The newer actors could of used some better directing to help them feel comfortable in their role. Some of them seemed like they were just reading line rather than being the character and feeling what the character is feeling.

Hopefully the next film will learn from the cons of this one and succeed on the next.

I have watched this movie 3 times already I had to buy the DVD. I highly recommend this movie if you like slasher movies. I thought the actors were awesome did amazing job. I hope there will be a sequel of this Movie. I thought the young Johnny is an awesome actor I seen him in other movies also.. The little girl that played Christina I have seen her in other movies. She is amazing actress. I thought the director and writer did a great job on this. I see one of the actress is on local TV daily. I believe this movie can win awards with the actors that are in this movie. Anyway I recommend watching this Christmas Slasher. I love the part when Christina says Johnny were in the world are you. That scene was hilarious.

He Knows (2022) is a holiday horror flick that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a young lady, Christina, who saw her entire family killed by a Christmas elf. Now an adult Christina returns home with her daughter for Christmas only to be plagued by murders all around her that remind her of the tragedy she experienced as a child.

This movie is directed by Steven Morris (Paragenex) in his directorial debut and stars Julie Anne Prescott (The Amityville Harvest), Lynn Lowry (Shivers), Shawn C. Phillips (Dead Ant), Jessa Flux (Debbie Does Demons) and Kayla Kelly (A Christmas Hero).

This is a very uneven movie. The opening narration and animation was pretty solid and the soundtrack was good too. The kills were the most frustrating part, the first couple were okay and the last one was the best of the movie. The killing of the villain was fun. There was a bong kill that cracked me up. The acting was fairly average, not good but not bad. The writing was also uneven with some dialogue feeling more authentic than others. The cinematography could have been better.

Overall, this is a fairly average addition to the horror genre that's worth watching once if you're looking for a holiday horror picture. I would score this a 4.5/10 and recommend seeing it once.

This slasher is pretty corny with solid kills and production value. The performances are so bad that it dragged so much in the second half.

A pretty large cast and Meiser was the only stand out actor who seemed somewhat believable with his character. Although some scenes were kind of funny, specifically the lines Mikal delivered. But the rest of the large cast didn't do this film any favors.

The editing could've tightened this into a short or even a feature of 70 to 75 minutes. I think the script could have used some rewrites too but the poor performances don't deserve 100 minute runtime.

I was involved a comparably bad movie before. Scratch that, the one I was in was worse. So it's hard to not relate. But story and acting are what sustains a film. It's almost a waste of resources to have good sound and decent cinematography if the script and performances can't hold up.
