Editors’ Choice: Armoury’s Jack Laurence puts a gangland spin on Christmas - and offers you the chase to bag yourself a bottle of brandy

Black Christmas is the new short film from director Jack Laurance at London production company, Armoury.

A dark and distinctly alternative take on the festive season, the film is a disturbing gangland tale that turns all your favourite Christmas clichés on their heads.

Dripping with menace, it features a far from saintly expectant young mother, a bloodthirsty reindeer and a plot with more twists than a candy cane. 

It’s the ultimate antidote to Christmas ad overkill and a gift for anyone with an appreciation for gallows humour. Watch out for a whole host of ingenious and sinister clues referencing well-loved Yuletide traditions…

Pouring brandy on your Christmas pudding will never be the same again.
