...The 10 minute finale of Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2!
Billy's younger brother, Ricky, who was also in the car when the parental units were hacked and slashed by the psycho Santa, is all grown up and he's carrying out the family tradition of dressing as Santa and decking the halls with chunks of bodies! In the final 10 minutes of the film, Ricky kills a man in a Santa costume, steals his suit, and returns to the orphanage to seek revenge on the evil Mother Superior, who tormented his older brother years earlier!
Let the horrible acting and bloodshed ensue!
I chose this clip because it's the only time in the film (other than in flashbacks to the first...which comprise about 60% of the movie), where the killer actually dons the Santa suit. For all his other kills, Ricky's in a preppy little blue sweater, which you probably know from seeing that garbage day clip all over the internet. Trust me, it was hard for me to not post that clip. Although I guess I just did...
As always, for more Christmas horror fun, check out the sidebar to your right and come on back every day from now through December 25th for an awesome new neatly wrapped clip!

Aside from "Garbage Day," my favourite line is, "Booooooo!" Awesome. Absolutely terrible movie. Did you know the director's full-time occupation was an editor? Guess he used this movie as a chance to hone his skills...
I did not know that! Can't say as im surprised though
Yeah, it says it in my dvd liner notes, and they tout it as something to be proud of: [Lee] Harry was hired specifically for his editing experience, which makes perfect sense since nearly one third of the sequel is comprised of footage from the first film."
It gets worse...
"I was an editor at a small post-production facility in Burbank. And the guy who ran the place was approached by the people who owned the original Silent Night, Deadly Night and asked if we could take the movie, recut it and add some footage to try to get a little more shelf life out of it," recalls Harry.
Hope I didn't ruin the mystique...
Just proves that when ya have no passion for whatever youre making, it's probably gonna be a piece of crap! Never cared much for SLDN2. Not enough Santa costume for me.
