    Violent Night is a modern Christmas classic!
    If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free thoughts, please follow my blog to read my full review :)

    "Violent Night is one of the biggest surprises of the year, instantly becoming a contemporary Christmas classic! David Harbour expertly embodies a shockingly brutal, savage version of Santa Claus that somehow still delivers lovely messages.

    Fighting sequences feature truly violent practical stunts, taking advantage of the R rating to provide unmeasurable amounts of gore. Creative use of Christmas songs will leave audiences crying with laughter.

    A brilliant homage to the seasonal genre classics that should be seen in a packed theater!"
