Reviews for Silent Night, Deadly Night
Not only is the movie vile and callous, but also it's pretty darn stupid.
As slasher films go, this is about average. The sets are cheap, with most of the budget seemingly going to the gore effects.
This was obviously not new territory for the slasher genre, mind you, but Silent Night, Deadly Night brought the idea to new levels of cold sleaziness.
