Just a quick note to my readers -  This is not the start to my next retrospective.  I have volunteered to join onto FORGOTTEN FILMS' 1984-A-Thon, a massive blogger participation project reviewing over 100 films from 1984 on over 100 blogs(lots of great reading material, too. Check it out!).  My contribution to this is the controversial film SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT.  We may go back and do the rest of these films in the near future, but this is currently just a one-shot.  The David Fincher retrospective will hopefully begin very soon.

SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT Returns To Theaters This December!

If you don't go, Billy will PUNISH you!  The great Justin Beahm is teaming with Screenvision and Fangoria to return the controversial holiday classic Silent Night, Deadly Night to theaters.  Its got an all new amazing HD transfer too!  It opens December 4th to what I'm sure will amount to ZERO protesting as opposed to the first time around!  Can we also take a moment to marvel at this really awesome new poster design?  I remember the original poster of the Santa's arm with an axe going down a chimney being iconic, but this thing takes the movie to an incredibly new area of dread.  I hope this rerelease is a sign that a Blu-ray is definitely in the works.  I love when my 80's slashers come to do high definition and this is a big one that is missing.  Also, if this does well, maybe we can celebrate "Garbage Day" next year!  Official details from the press release and a link to where you can find tickets follow below!
