I came across this one (bonus points for starring Carvelli from Welcome Back Kotter, by the way). Any others out there?

As far as I know the 2019 movie 'Hannukah' is the only horror film centered around the holiday. There have been other horror films that have used Jewish lore, there's been a few based on the Golem, and dybbuk.
In the horror comedy anthology Chillerama, in the segment The Diary Of Anne Frankenstein, the Frankenstein monster is named Meshugannah.

I haven't seen Hanukkah, but I've seen the director's earlier films Sick Girl and House Of The Wolf Man. Sick Girl I really enjoyed, House Of The Wolf Man was decent, cool idea trying to recapture the look of the old B&W Universal horror movies, just didn't quite succeed. It does have Lon Chaney Jr's grandson Ron Chaney in it.

Hopefully there''ll be a sequel. Logically speaking, there could be 8 of these in total.
