Review of Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) by Akshatmahajan — 10 Aug 2021

Got to know about this movie from my brother who told me that this movie was banned only 1 week after release. The reason for ban was just childish. Parents thought this movie will have bad impact on children and will change thinking of Christmas. What type of childish parents they would be. Don't show them the movie, simple. Why ban?

Talking about the movie, it was good and enjoyable. It was like other 80s low budget slashers, which I enjoyed watching. The pace and setting of movie was good. The main lead gave a good performance, not great. This movie was like Halloween and Friday the 13th, just with different concept. I think this movie should be remade just like Halloween (2018), as this concept has alot of potential.

Overall, a good enjoyable slasher movie which you can definitely watch if you love 80s slasher horror.
