What’s even freakier about this is that someone had to come up with this idea and then devise a way that would make it all finally come together and make sense considering that everything in the box would be personal to the owner and that it would affect them in a profound manner that would force them to choose their life or the lives of those that the box demanded in sacrifice. As a Christmas movie, this definitely makes for a compelling horror that gives a different look at the ever-popular advent calendar that so many of us have likely known about or had every December since we were kids. The sacrifices that come from that point on are harder to watch since the fact is that the box demands much of her, as does the grotesque figure that emerges whenever the box appears to be in danger of being lost or damaged. Eva’s dog then chomps the toy car to bits, and in real life Boris’s vehicle is found later, looking as though it’s been tossed down a hillside, killing Boris in the process. To be fair, the first person to be taken out, a creep by the name of Boris that tries to molest Eva while she’s sleeping, has it coming when a miniature version of his vehicle comes rolling out of the calendar at one point. As things go along, the story only gets stranger as each box has either candy or an item that Eva is meant to do something with, though once it becomes evident that sacrifice is part of the pact, Eva begins to realize it’s not a joke. As one might guess, Eva and her friend are less than impressed by the rules, but Eva does begin the process by eating the first candy.
When her friend gives her an intricate, wooden advent calendar for her birthday they find out that it comes with rules, such as the fact that a person must eat every candy that can be found in the compartments, that they play the rules of the calendar, and they do not attempt to destroy the box. Having spent three years of her life as a paraplegic after an accident that put her in a wheelchair, Eva has adjusted and is living a moderately fulfilling life.

Talk about a bleak Christmas if there ever was one, since this movie takes the idea of the advent calendar to an extreme that is difficult to think about since in real life it would make a person one of the most despised individuals in all of existence for daring to do some of the things that are depicted.
