SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT & PART 2: Killer Santas and Garbage Day Delights | Cinema Shock Roulette

In this holiday-themed installment of Cinema Shock Roulette, we’re decking the halls with blood and sleigh bells as we dive into the yuletide controversy of SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT (1984) — the slasher that sparked national outrage and was pulled from theaters after just two weeks. But we don’t stop there. We’re also unwrapping SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT PART 2, the low-budget sequel that reused nearly half the footage from the first film — and somehow gave us one of the most memeable moments in cult horror history: “Garbage Day!” From protest picket lines to killer Santas, from Catholic guilt to VHS resurrection, we’re tracing the strange and sleazy legacy of this infamously naughty franchise.   Theme Song: "There's Still a Little Bit of Time, If We Hurry and I Mean Hurry" by Slasher Film Festival Strategy.
