Twas the night before Christmas and all though the house Santa is comming but Santa is coming for some blood....
Violent Night is about a rich family that is being taking hostage by a crime boss. at the same time Santa is doing his Christmas run. Santa goes rogue and must save this family and find his reindeer that way he can go back to work making kids happy.
Without any spollers, this movie has some violence but it is still a family action packed family comedy with a lot of good jokes. But, it is still a rated R movie.
The things that I liked about the movie are there's a lot of Christmas movie references like the plot is the same story from Die Hard (Yes, Die Hard is a Christmas Movie). But this time we have Santa kicking butts like nobody's business. There's a sub plot with a little girl who watches Home Alone setting up traps just like Home Alone but it is more violent . She had her chance to be in a spotlight in the heart of this movie and this is a new take of the Santa Clause movie.
Let's talk about David Harbour as Santa. Everybody knows him from Netfix's Stranger Things. David did not disappoint. David plays Santa but without any spoilers, David as Santa knows he can kick some serious butt . He has an amazing backstory but I'm not going to say anything here.
Santa Clause from Violent Night is my personal favorite Santa clause. I give it a 10 out of 10 and a must see Christmas movie.
