About this episode
Happy Holidays! This week the vamps cover a 90s Spanish horror comedy that's set on Christmas. It's the hilarious Day of the Beast. From Wiki: " The Day of the Beast (Spanish: El día de la bestia ) is a 1995 Spanish-Italian [1] black comedy film [2] with horror elements co-written and directed by Álex de la Iglesia and starring Álex Angulo , Armando De Razza and Santiago Segura . The plot concerns the unorthodox attempts of a Basque priest (Angulo) to avert the birth of the Antichrist in Madrid during Christmas Eve , teaming up with a metalhead (Segura) and an occult fraudster (De Razza). The film, marketed as "a satanic comedy", [3] was well received by critics and audiences in Spain, and sparked interest in the director's filmography and style of directing."
