‘Silent Night’ Santa Claus Wears A Mask, Rocks An Axe & Flame Thrower!!!
Not only did we score the first ever look and two official stills from Steven C. Miller’s now-filming Silent Night, their “loose remake” of Charles E. Sellier Jr.’s 1984 classic Silent Night, Deadly Night now filming in Winnipeg for release via Anchor Bay, but we’ve now scored a look at a teaser one-sheet that’ll light a fire under your ass! The
The below poster displays the slashing Santa, played by Rick Skene, with a flamethrower, an axe and what appears to be a “mask”. The idea that the Santa wears a Santa mask it actually pretty genius.
Jaime King (My Bloody Valentine, Mother’s Day), Malcolm McDowell (Halloween), Donal Logue (Shark Night 3D), Jamie Kennedy (Scream), Lisa Marie (Sleepy Hollow), Ellen Wong (Scott Pilgrim vs the World), Brendan Fehr (Final Destination) and Cortney Palm (Sushi Girl) also star in the film where a sadist Santa (played by Rick Skene) has come to punish the naughty of Cryer, and this Christmas Eve will be anything but a Silent Night…
The slashing begins on a snowy Christmas Eve in Cryer, WI. The normally quiet town is bustling with activity as the the residents are getting ready for the big day. The events take place around the towns annual Santa Parade, which has brought a record number of Santas to town. Deputy Sheriff Aubrey Bradimore (King) is stuck reluctantly working the night shift, dealing with all of the drunken Santas, road closures, and stressed out locals — but things are about to take a deadly turn. A vicious serial killer, dressed as Santa Claus, has made his own “naughty list” and anyone on it is in big trouble. As the body count rises, Aubrey races to discover the killer’s true identity – but in a town full of Santas, shady characters and dark secrets, finding the real murderer will take more then a Christmas miracle. McDowell plays Sheriff Cooper, a small-town hero ready for some big-time action.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
