Overview

The Mean One is a 2022 American Christmas slasher film directed by Steven LaMorte from a screenplay written by Flip and Finn Kobler. The film is an unlicensed parody of Dr. Seuss' 1957 children's book How the Grinch Stole Christmas! and its adaptations, and it falls under the horror and comedy genres with a runtime of one hour and thirty-three minutes. The cast includes Krystle Martin, Chase Mullins, John Bigham, Erik Baker, and Flip Kobler. Set in a sleepy mountain town, the story begins when a young girl named Cindy witnesses the murder of her parents by a bloodthirsty green figure wearing a red Santa suit. Twenty years after this tragic event, the Christmas-hating monster returns to terrorize the town once more. In response, Cindy finds a new purpose in trying to stop the murderous creature and ultimately save the holiday.
