All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

Silent Night (2012)

Starring: Jamie King, Donal Louge, Malcolm McDowell
Director: Steven C. Miller

Premise:
On Christmas Eve, a killer Santa comes to town and starts taking out people who've been naughty.

My Take:
Nothing like a remake about a killing Santa for the holidays. The movie isn't bad for a remake of a decent early 80's flick, but it does have several annoying flaws. Plenty of gore and boobs though for fans of the slasher subgenre.
The performances of Donal Logue as a drunken Santa is perfect.

Rating: Warning
