Cards By Michael Dougherty

Michael Dougherty is an American film director, producer, screenwriter, and comic book creator. He is best known for his work with Dan Harris on the scripts for Bryan Singer's films X2 (2003) and Superman Returns (2006), as well as writing and directing the cult horror film Trick 'r Treat (2007). He also directed, co-wrote, and produced the Christmas horror-comedy Krampus (2015), and co-wrote and directed Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019).

If you and the folks on your Christmas and Halloween greeting card list have a bent towards the ghoulish, a twist for the ghastly, an appreciation of the colorfully macabre, and a fine warped sense of humor, then here are the perfect Xmas and All Hallows' Eve cards for you and them.

From the demented mind and delightful pen of Michael Dougherty: Santa Claus gets charred to a blackened cinder coming down the Yule chimney, as a cute little kid in green pajamas surveys the festively lighted scene; and a grinning, glowing jack o' lantern takes a big butcher's knife to the orange pumpkin gourd, allowing an adorable gray kitty to lap up some of the bloody red run-off.

These Noel and Halloween greeting cards are not for the squeamish or sensitive, but surely "are" for all those with a somewhat perverted penchant for unique artwork and slightly grotesque hilarity.
