The human subplot can be a bit of a drag but when the scorpions come on screen the movie becomes a true hidden gem.

This is one of the most sick and repulsive films ever made it is a film that is so bad it fails to properly execute its subject matter with any care it is a series of the most inhumane actions ever put on celluloid and i cant believe this piece of garbage was ever made back in the 70s. I love horror films i love being shocked and terrified i love movies. But this is simply inexcusable. Reading the Wikipedia articles alone pissed me off. 90 minutes of pure spite and hatred there is nothing in this movie no matter how much music or editing this thing keeps trying to salvage. Simply showing inhumanity on screen does not mean you're advocating against it you're just being exploitative. How does it take a person watching this 15-30 minutes to know that degrading human beings is bad?

What a disheartening and depressing movie, i understand what they were trying to go for here to make something morbidly artistic and there are some happier moments here and there but its all just a bunch of exploitative sick fantasies. There are plenty of biographies, documentaries of Monroe that are so much better that were well done better than this two hour long mess. Both this and the novel it was based on is completely inexcusable its what happens when a person is out of ideas and who are desperate to gain any sort of notoriety creates something that will gratify their sick urges. This movie makes a big spectacle out of her trauma and tragedy when there was so much more than that she had plenty of great moments in her life. Please for the love of god support any other Marylin Monroe documentary as long as their accurate informative and made by people who are passionate not created by people who simply got bored and wanted to churn out a fetish stories. As a Marylin Monroe fan myself i truly disapprove of this film, complete garbage depressing and a complete snooze fest the type of movie you'll play in the background while you clean your house. This is truly one of the worst films ever made Lesson of the story Don't make up stupid shit.

I’m fascinated with classic horror films, but this film is just a laughably bad, cynical cash grab trying to hop on the slasher bandwagon, probably, in my opinion, one of the worst films ever made. It seems as if the makers of this film think horror films are nothing more than cheap jump scares and unnecessary cruelty. It’s just a predictable motion picture, along with idiotic characters and a poorly done and desperate ad campaign trying to stir controversy. Whoever was behind the marketing should be questioned immediately. The backlash, while understandable, could’ve been avoided if the parents had told their children, Don’t watch it, and don’t make movies like this. There are two better holiday-themed holiday horror films to this day that are timeless classics: Black Christmas (1974) and Christmas Evil (1980). If you’re into trash B-movie trash, I might understand the appeal some supporters of the film would say: “Oh, it’s just a mindless B movie with a long sympathetic killer backstory.” And I’d admit that the concept of child trauma is good on paper, and in some instances the editing, and gore, and cinematography are well made. I love the retro look of this film; it’s pretty amazing. Good work, Charles; unfortunately, he passed away, deeply ashamed of the picture. But overall the direction, screenplay, acting, and score are overwhelmingly poorly executed. I genuinely don’t understand why there’s that much backlash against that Siskel & Ebert review; in actuality, I can understand where they’re coming from. Relax, guys; S&E doesn’t hate horror films in general. You're getting triggered over a television review made in 1984. Grow up; nobody cares. Stop acting like negative reviews of this film don’t exist because they goddamn do, and I’ve read them. We can easily predict how events would unfold regardless; you’re completely sitting there shaking your head as you watch a bunch of crime footage stitched together. The obvious thing to do was to just place Billy in a therapist; it was the most obvious thing to do and would've spared us an hour. Mother Superior deserved what she got; in the sequel, however, she was an insufferable moron, but the filmmakers were too scared to film a decapitation in front of children, so they said screw it and gave this piece of walking trash a second life. Why does Billy decide to randomly enter someone's house when he has zero indication of what goes on, who these people are, or what they have anything to do with Billy? Um, how are the cops this stupid at their jobs? Um, how is Billy tall enough to impale someone on a set of antlers? Seriously, this movie's storytelling and logic are a complete travesty. Yes, I can understand why people enjoy this film. For a slasher film, they actually develop the perpetrators backstory. That gives the film a sort of cautionary tale vibe. There are some wholesome moments here and there, and "Warm Side of the Door" is honestly an underrated gem. Even though the characters murdered in the store aren't entirely innocent, that doesn't justify Billy's actions. In conclusion, Silent Night, Deadly Night contains good special effects and visuals that are far from bad, but its jumbled-up, illogical screenplay is an utter disappointment. They made sequels to this, and that’s just Naughty... 1/5 ⭐️ I like Pamela’s tits, though, like seriously, I’m that horny.

I love this movie, it’s not only the greatest crime film of all time but one of the greatest films of all time, the cinematography acting and story are truly amazing The film is not a glorification but a reflection of why characters choose their own path regardless if the consequences leads to their demise, the decisions Bonnie and Clyde make in this film are done out of desperation and because of the good writing we the audience experience their journey through relationships, motives and opportunities What they did was wrong, truly perhaps we wish they would’ve turn themselves in before things escalate to a worse degree, but it was too late, but what we got was a well written heartwarming cautionary tale that still holds up to this day! (Also am I the only one who finds Faye Dunaway attractive in this movie)

To be honest, this wasn’t as bad as I was expecting, but that doesn’t make it good. But for starters, it has charming characters, good special effects, and a decent soundtrack. I’m not a huge fan of gore, but I’d give the film credit; it’s well done. But the main issue with the film is the story and the similarities with  Friday the 13th Part 2, is immense with all the positives I’ve mentioned. At the end of the day, the story is the heart of your movie. It’s Friday, the 13th, but if Jason Got burned instead of drowning to death, which was called out by Siskel and Ebert on their Dogs of the Week segment show back when this was first released,  If you're in the mood for silly, over-the-top horror movies with special effects, this is top-tier. But if not in the mood for that and you’re like into top tier storytelling, it wouldn’t be that bad but could be way better.  Typical slasher bye drink water

Terrible NES shovelware of the time
