Super Mario Bros: The Great Mission To Rescue Princess Peach Review
"Holy Grails" are a funny thing. You can spend years hunting for them and pining for them and dreaming about them, but as soon as they've finally been procured, they lose their lu...

Black Christmas (1974) Review
After suffering through the gauntlet that was the Silent Night, Deadly Night sequels, it was a real pleasure to end my week-long Christmas horror marathon with a genuinely good movie. Black Christmas, even more than the original Silent Night, Deadly Night, is the essential Holiday horror movie. It’s a creepy, unnerving, disturbing low budget slasher flick that actually predates the slasher subgenre as we know it....
Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker (1991) Review
And the original Silent Night, Deadly Night series concludes with Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker. We’ve seen some weird, random shit on our journey through this franchise, and I must confess, they saved the weirdest, most random shit for last. When the Silent Night, Deadly Night series began, it was about a traumatized young man snapping on Christmas Eve and slaughtering his neighbors with an axe whi...
Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Initiation (1990) Review
For a series recognized for starring a “killer Santa”, the Silent Night, Deadly Night sequels are surprisingly lacking in killer Santa action. The villain doesn’t don a Santa suit until the last ten minutes of Part 2, the third installment only features a killer Santa in a dream sequence at the very beginning, and Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Initiation... well, it doesn’t feature a killer Santa *at all*. ...
Silent Night, Deadly Night 3: Better Watch Out (1989) Review
And now we get to the one many fans tend to praise as the “best” installment in the whole franchise: Silent Night, Deadly Night 3: Better Watch Out! I suppose that “best” is a fairly relative term when referring to any quality of the Silent Night, Deadly Night franchise, and I personally don’t think it trumps the original for even an instant, but among the slew of mediocre sequels it certainly stands out. ...
Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 (1987) Review
Remember when, in its second episode, Clerks: The Series decided to do a clip show? The whole joke consisted of, “Hey, we only have one episode to draw clips from! Isn’t that tedious?” Now, imagine if a movie did it only without the self-aware sense of humor, acknowledging such an absurd concept. What you get is Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2, the second film in the series which consists of 50% clips fro...
