I've heard of Santa Conquers The Martians. That movie got universally panned, right?

Some of these might not be what you want as most horror fans know them.
Christmas Evil
Silent Night Bloody Night
Rare Exports
Sint
Not Christmas but a good movie for the winter would be Ghostkeeper

Blood Rage takes place on Thanksgiving, although the holiday angle is underplayed. Not a very festive movie, but it kicks lots of ass.
Blood Beat (1983), I believe, takes place on Christmas. It's a bizarre one.
There's also Bloody New Year (1987). Rented this ages ago. Weird British movie. The VHS cover was a combination of cheesy and creepy. There was a really goofy skeleton on the cover with confetti and party banners all over the place.

Is Blood Rage about the twin brothers?

Ah, okay. I remember that one now.

No, I think you're thinking of Island of Blood (1982).

The made for television movie Home For The Holidays(1972), which stars Sally Field might be a good candidate. The made television format has some limitations, but the influence on the slasher genre is undeniable. A true proto-slasher. Actually, given its relative obscurity, I wouldn't mind a remake.

Thanks for the tip. I love many seventies made-for-tv, especially the thriller/horror films. The writer of the film you mentioned also did the screenwriting for Hitchcock's Psycho.

Rampage isn't exactly horror but it is about the trial of a blood-drinking serial killer who killed a whole family on Christmas.

That's the one that I was gonna mention too. I stumbled upon it on TV randomly while wrapping presents one year. Nothing special, but relatively fun.

I agree, thought it was fun.
