Morozko from the 1924 russian movie "Morozko" by Yuri Zhelyabuzhskiy.
Morozko (Grandfather Frost) is a spirit of frost or sometimes a wizard of winter. Since the 19th century this character has changed, and now he is a symbol of the New Year holiday. Morozko is similar to Santa Claus in his modern role in russian culture.
Honestly, I made this post only to promote the movie. You must see it, it's good. Morozko of 1924 is a silent movie, you can just read the tale to understand what is happening on the screen. The movie is basically a horror (but not really scary, not in modern sense at least), and the plot of the movie is closer to the fairy tale than the plot of the 1964 version.
Pro:
it's a movie adaptation of the fairy tale
it's a horror
Morozko!
actually interesting to watch
it's just 35 minutes long
authentical folk costumes from a century ago
wedding (the wedding song is a banger!)
There are no cons. Just watch it! :)
