In 1984, the slasher classic Silent Night, Deadly Night stunned audiences, was banned in Queensland, and remains the most notorious Christmas movie in history. Now, Santa is back, and he’s got a brand new bag of tricks. As their small Midwestern town prepares for its annual Christmas Eve parade, Sheriff Cooper (Malcolm McDowell) and his deputy (Jaime King) discover that a maniac in a Santa suit is murdering those he judges as “naughty”. Their sins? Making porn, adultery, greed... and he will make sure they rest in heavenly pieces! (Monster Pictures)

Pure slasher is dead as a horror sub-genre and the fact that, due to the lack of competition, some fans are satisfied with this feeble, sterile and derivative Christmas flick is proof enough of that. One murderous Santa, a couple of uninteresting murders, zero atmosphere and an incredibly annoying and dumb police officer in the main role. Better go for the atmospheric original, the funny Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale, from Finland, or the forgotten French horror movie Hide and Freak.
