A Video Holiday Greeting Worth Watching

A perfectly pitched holiday message. Be careful how you treat those presents on Christmas morn.

Directing pair Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as DANIELS, have come up with a different kind of holiday card. Not only is it a beautifully shot video (as opposed to the standard paper version or the pathetic e-card variety) with an appropriately named band (Sleigh Bells) providing the soundtrack, it gives Christmas a much-needed dark twist to counteract all that saccharine. What results is a festive message that isn’t sickly sweet but that doesn’t make you go all “bah humbug” either, though it may make you a little more wary next time you unwrap a gift.
