DESCRIPTION

40th Anniversary! Holiday Season Horrors!

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 in a new restoration from the original camera negative.

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.

The harrowing horror classic that continues to ruffle the feathers of angry parents and stuffy critics over thirty years later.

3.5 / 4 Stars! “a cult classic…has something a lot of slasher films lack — a unique identity” (Salon)

“A horror Christmas classic…Silent Night, Deadly Night should be an essential part of your Christmas rotation…It’s really a lot of fun.” (Cultured Vultures)

“It’s a delightfully mean-spirited tale…a slasher classic.” (Patheos)

“a great deal of fun, filled with unforgettable sequences, quotable lines, and pitch-black humor, all of which contributed to its infamous reputation.” (Bloody Disgusting)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
