Thanks for stopping by and watching the CHRISTMAS SLAYCATION horror parody trailer of sorts of the Warner Brothers 1989 comedy film, CHRISTMAS VACATION. This video was part of a bigger middle school iPad iMovie class lesson that instructed students how to interpret mood and tone in film, focusing on music omitted and added, camera angles, and actor expressions.

This was an educational lesson and parody of a body of work by Warner Brothers studios. The purpose of this video is to provide fellow teachers and students the opportunity to view and create something similar in the classroom setting. Though Fair Use is vague (open to interpretation), we believe it falls under "educational" and "parody" for non-commercial purposes.
