Silent Night, Deadly Night
Body
Santa Claus is coming to town... and this time he’s got 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. Silent Night, Deadly Night is the demented story of little Billy Chapman, traumatized by his parents’ Christmas Eve murder and then brutalized by sadistic nuns in an orphanage. When Billy grows up and dresses as Santa, he goes on a yuletide rampage to punish the naughty with extreme prejudice.
Robert Brian Wilson and Linnea Quigley star in this harrowing horror classic that continues to ruffle the feathers of angry parents over thirty years later.
