PREMISE
SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT reimagines a 1984 cult horror classic. In this film, a young boy witnesses the murder of his parents by a man dressed as Santa. He then grows up and becomes a killer himself. Haunted by trauma and fuelled by a twisted sense of justice, he dons the red suit. He turns the Advent calendar into a series of nights of terror.
As Christmas Eve approaches, a small town becomes his latest hunting ground, where the naughty and bad pay the ultimate price. Blending psychological horror, brutal slasher thrills, a touch of the supernatural, and – more shockingly still – a sprinkle of romance, the film delivers a modern, chilling new take on the ultimate holiday nightmare.
