    About

    “The psycho Santa embodies Reagan-era conservatism, then at its peak, mocking the strict discipline of compassionless, law-and-order, moral-policing reactionaries…If the Gipper was post-Carter America’s Santa Claus, he was also its Krampus.” – BrooklynSanta Claus is coming to town–and this time he’s bringing an axe!

    Community leaders tried to stop it. The P.T.A. fought to ban it. Now, one of the most controversial slasher films of all time is back on the big screen. Silent Night, Deadly Night is the demented story of little Billy Chapman, traumatized by the Christmas Eve murders of his parents and subsequent brutal treatment by sadistic orphanage nuns. Grown-up Billy dresses as Santa and goes on a yuletide rampage to punish the naughty with extreme prejudice. Robert Brian Wilson and Linnea Quigley (Night of the Demons) star in this harrowing horror classic that, almost 40 years later, continues to ruffle the feathers of angry parents and stuffy critics.
